## Summary

Samsung Galaxy owners can change their phone’s appearance by applying downloaded icon packs and themes, which can also alter the colours of system apps and the Quick Panel. The guide explains how to find and apply these options, while noting that users cannot turn their own images into app icons through the Themes app.

More customisation is available through Good Lock and its add-ons, including controls for the home screen, lock screen, notifications, gestures and Quick Panel. Samsung’s Wallpaper and style settings also let users apply a colour palette across parts of the interface, including many app icons; One UI 9 adds ways to resize and rearrange Quick Panel elements.
