Verticons icon pack - Basic

Tall vibrant icons that give your home screen a bold new look

Verticons icon pack – Basic offers a distinctive take on customization by replacing the usual circles and squircles with slim, vertical rectangles that instantly stand out. If you are tired of standard icon shapes and want something that complements modern tall displays, this pack delivers a surprisingly fresh visual twist.

The design language loosely follows Material Design, but with its own personality. Instead of trendy long shadows, Verticons leans on crisp drop shadows, vivid colors, and card-like silhouettes. The result is a layered, slightly three‑dimensional look that feels clean yet playful. On 18:9 and taller screens, the elongated icons help emphasize vertical space, making your layout feel more structured and modern.

With around 2350 icons in this free Basic version, coverage is solid for most popular apps, and icon masking does a decent job of keeping unsupported apps from looking out of place—especially if you follow the recommendation to use a full square or square adaptive shape in compatible launchers. Verticons also supports a wide range of launchers, including Nova, Lawnchair, Microsoft, Smart, OnePlus, Niagara, and many others, so integration is generally smooth.

Customization fans will appreciate being able to pick alternate icons via a long press (where the launcher supports editing), which lets you fine‑tune the look of key apps. The developer also suggests bumping icon size to 125–140% and disabling icon normalization, and this advice really helps Verticons shine.

On the downside, some niche apps may still lack dedicated icons, and the tall rectangular style may feel unusual at first, especially if you prefer minimal or ultra-flat setups. Still, for users looking to break away from standard icon shapes without sacrificing polish, Verticons icon pack – Basic is an impressive and distinctive option.
