Guys, I know this won’t happen but a week ago I created this icon with AI while I was sad because we lost Apollo. I wished Christian would make a transition to lemmy but he was completely silent.
Then I found out about wefwef and I’m really glad that I can have nearly the same experience while surfing on reddit.
Even if I’m using mostly all available Apps for iOS, the only true successor to Apollo is Voyager.
Best idea so far, since it takes from Apollo for recognition’s sake.
However, the logo is way too busy for the purpose it’ll have: An App Icon. Logos in general are very minimized, and these details aren’t readable at that minute scale.
I think somewhere, iterating off of this, would be the winner idea. At least, unless if someone wants to do something completely different off of the name, like a rocket ship or a boat, or something with a yellow disc like those ones the Voyager departed with.
I agree wholeheartedly. Whenever some is doing app design, I always tell them - just because the PNG submission recommendation is 1024x1024px, there’s only one time people will ever see it at that res (in the store); after that, it gets scaled down as small as 120x120 for Home Screen use (or 58x58 in settings).
There’s a reason boring, flat vector design wins - fast, universal legibility.
I don’t think it’s too busy at all. It looks great on my home screen.
FYI Developer specifically mentioned that Apollo-like icons would not be accepted
This is not the official icon submission thread. But I didn’t know this.

Really like your design regardless! Nice work!
I hope that a talented designer will find a way to turn my idea into a logo that fits the developers’ needs.
I would like to see a homage to Apollo.
If you’re on iOS and want to use this as an icon here‘s how.
(I think I’ll just keep posting this under every icon proposal from now on)
Your profile-based shortcut asked for permission to open one of my banking apps. It was the step where you ask it to install the profile. I hope this is just some kind of mistake because I put in the wrong URL. What URL are you supposed to use? https://wefwef.app/settings/install ?
I only knew that you could change the icon for apps (via shortcuts) but thank you very much!
The method you’re most likely talking about doesn’t work for web apps sadly. But for web apps this solution is indistinguishable from having the regular icon, which isn’t the case if you wanna use a different icon for a regular app
I’m living the dream! Thanks a lot.
Oooo I really like this! Super cute and a good nod to Apollo too!
Best one I’ve seen yet. Wefwef really needs a new icon yesterday.
This is an absolutely gorgeous icon great job OP! It really reminds me of an Apollo icon with a nice unique difference.
Regardless of everything, whether it’s too full of detail for an icon or approaching the style of Apollo’s icons, I have to admit it’s absolutely gorgeous! Good job!
Logo is amazing. Going to check out wefwef because of this post.
It’s so modern, clean, and kawaii
I like it 👍
I really like the logo. Looks awesome
This one gets my vote.
Reminds me of the latest FFXIV expansion!
I would use that in a heartbeat.
Looks great!
I dunno but I really like this one.
