The Beta icon does not currently show the text in the monochrome variant.
I'll need to modify it slightly.
I am leaning into cutting out the purple area in the beta label and leaving only the text.
Something like this:

What do you guys think?

Is there somewhere the original app icon in svg or something so it would be easy to manipulate the layers and paths?

Everything we have is in the assets folder

Is there any possibility to reduce the transparency of additional diagonal lines in the test build?

OK, I'll try to use that for tweaking the icon for beta version.

I am not sure what do you mean can you provide a picture? I think the lines aren't transparent at all.

just figma.

original test builds icon

Now the diagonal lines are hardly visible because of the similar background color. But in your example of monochrome icons for test builds these lines stand out a lot and look ugly. Is there any possibility to make these lines less noticeable, like the original icons? If there is no possibility to change their transparency, then maybe make them thinner?

[kuci-JK]

Ok, I have updated the icons. The current state is:

debug:

• I have set the alpha to 0.5 for the diagonal lines

• New on the right, Previous on the left

beta:

• I have cut out the part behind the square with the text so it will be readable also in the monochrome icon variant

release:

Let me know what you think :)

[kuci-JK]

Android studio shows the thin line around the originally black pieces of the icon, but on the phone they are not visible as you can see in the screenshot here.

@kuci-JK Can't the debug icon look like this?

btw, some icon packs only did the outline

@kuci-JK Can't the debug icon look like this?

In this case, it's hard to tell from the icon if it's a beta or a test build
Also, I'd like to separate test builds more strongly from release and beta, as they are temporary builds intended only for testing a specific PR

In monochrome color theme the left and right filled in areas of the icon have a very faint light outline. Not sure if that's by design but it feels a bit like a glitch.
