If you’re like most people, you probably use Instagram to keep in touch with friends and family. But if you’re like me, you also use it to document your life. And if you’re like most people, the app’s icon is a little bit out of date. Luckily, there are ways to change the Instagram app icon on your iPhone and Android devices. Here’s how:

  1. Open the Settings app on your iPhone or Android device.
  2. Scroll down until you find “Icon” and then select it from the list.
  3. Change the icon’s size and color to what you want it to be.
  4. Save your changes and close the Settings app on your devices.

Update: Instagram’s Easter Egg is now available on both iPhone and Android devices.

Unfortunately, at the time of writing, it doesn’t appear as though the Easter Egg is available on Android.

First, go to the App Store and check for app updates. Then, open the Instagram app on your iPhone or Android smartphone and then tap the Profile icon in the bottom-right corner.

Here, tap the hamburger Menu icon found in the top-right corner.

From the pop-up window, choose the “Settings” option.

In the Settings page, swipe down from the top of the screen. Continue swiping down until you get to the end of the screen. You’ll see a line of emojis to guide your way as you get to the top. You’ll see confetti once you reach the end of the emoji.

You’re now in the hidden app icon screen. Here are all the available Instagram app icon options.

Select the app icon you want to switch to. You can choose the classic Polaroid camera, Instagram’s original logo, or any of the other custom icons.

The icon will be changed, and you’ll see a pop-up message confirming the change. Tap the “OK” button to dismiss this pop-up.

Now, when you go back to your iPhone’s or Android’s home screen, you’ll see the updated app icon.

You can go back and change the app icon at any time while the feature is still available in the Instagram app.
