Change the app's icon to distinguish it from Microsoft OneDrive

I often confuse these two icons, because they have many similarities. It's especially bad with sharing links on Android. Makes it hard to build a sort of muscle memory and find Raindrop's icon quickly.

Allow users to change icon

PLEASE, allow users to choose different icons for the browser extension. It's way too similar to Apple's iCloud Password extension icon. And lets face it, Apple won't change theirs.
Why not just have a raindrop as your icon.

Safari icon too similar to iCloud tabs
Jamie Dyer
In the Safari extension the icon for raindrop and the icon for safari iCloud tabs are very similar and it can be confusing to remember which is which. Would it be possible to change the icon to something less similar?

Improving Icon Visual Identification and App Ranking for raindrop.io sharing Integration with other apps
Samuel Tee
I'm writing to provide some feedback and suggestions regarding the raindrop.io app, particularly concerning its icon visual identification and app ranking when sharing from other apps.
Firstly, I'd like to highlight the challenge of identifying the raindrop.io icon, especially when sharing content from other apps such as YouTube. The current icon's design might benefit from being more striking and distinctive. It often gets lost among a plethora of other icons, requiring users like me to scroll through a list of apps to find raindrop.io. Additionally, the similarity between the raindrop.io icon and that of Microsoft OneDrive exacerbates this issue.
Secondly, I've noticed that raindrop.io doesn't usually appear as one of the foremost apps recommended for app sharing feature such as YouTube on my Xiaomi Pad 6. I hence have to strain to find where the raindrop.io app is on the palette of possible apps to share the content with. Moreover, the inconsistency in position on the to share with palette adds an extra layer of challenge for users to find where the app is.
Ensuring raindrop.io consistently ranks among the top recommended apps for sharing would streamline the sharing process and further enhance the app's usability and convenience.
I believe addressing these issues would significantly improve the overall user experience of raindrop.io and further solidify its position as a valuable tool for content organization and bookmarking.
Thank you for considering my feedback and suggestions. I appreciate the effort and dedication your team puts into continuously improving the raindrop.io app.

Change the raindrop.io application icon

So this will not be fun, I totally understand that this is a controversial one and that it is absolutely not Raindrops fault and so on. "why should they bother".
But let's face it, the Raindrop application icon looks so much like the Onedrive application icon OR maybe it is the Onedrive icon that is identical to Raindrop, no idea who had it first.
I do however know that it will probably not ever happen that Microsoft will change their icon (especially with skydrive in mind), so the next best option is if Raindrop could consider change their.
Maybe I'm kind of a special user here, and use the "send to" a lot both to Raindrop and Onedrive (a lot!) and I just can't count how many times I clicked the wrong icon. Especially when the icons seem to move around in iOS depending on usage)
And yes, of course I'm the idiot here, the clear name is written underneath but still I do it, and probably will for ever. I did it a couple of minutes ago and I will maybe do it tomorrow or the next day...
Please consider the image below in its real use case, you are doing a couple of things, probably you're in the flow and need to start/send stuff, you're on a phone where these images are small. Of course a monkey won't click the wrong one when looking at it here :-)
Thanks for an awesome product!

+1. Started using Rain today and was surprised to see such an icon in Chrome. Make it blue like the logo, what's up Applestyle. :/
