@cool8jay Does this app gets the app icon for all the apps that are installed on you Mac? How does it get all the Mac icons? It is not clear to me exactly what the app does and how it is useful.

@ishu3101 Hi, Pica has an "Import" function, you can import icons of apps you like. Of course, you can choose several apps at a time, and pick icns files(Mac icon file) you want. (App may use icns file for other UI use instead of brand identity). I presume Pica is for Mac Icon designers or people who love beautiful icons. If you have ever collected postage stamps, you may understand what I mean.

@cool8jay thanks for hunting! What features do you plan on adding as you move out of beta?

@amrith Hi, There are still new features coming before beta test ends: 1. when adding new icons, use some algorithm to analyze its pixel colors, find dominant colors and categorize them. 2. show a magnifier like MacOS's Preview to check details of icons. 3. screensaver mode to display collected icons. ... Thank you.

Is this a limited trial or a beta test? The get full version sends you to the same download page. What is the purpose of the featured icons tab?

@manny_orduna Hi, It is a beta test, thereby features and inner implementation may be changed. The "get full version" button just leads to the homepage of app. (I update the text on the webpage) The purpose of the "featured icons" is showcasing amazing icons, but not a testimonial for those apps. Thank you.

Just a funny fact: Pica in brazilian portuguese means "dick".

@fernando_paladini I didn't expect that. 😂
