Google’s got disco icons for your Pixel phone, and everyone’s already taking them too far

• Disco-ified version of popular app icons have been going a little viral lately.
• Earlier this week, Android head Sameer Samat teased the possibility of an official icon pack.
• Today those disco icons go official as a custom style for the Pixel Launcher.

Disco has found itself mired in controversy for longer than many smartphone users have probably been alive (ask your parents about Disco Demolition Night). So it probably shouldn’t have been any surprise that Spotify users’ reactions to the app’s (temporary) new disco ball icon were mixed, at best. Where some people see controversy, others see opportunity, and Google’s rounding this week out by just leaning in to the disco icon fad as hard as it possibly can.
