One advantage of using this method over a third-party launcher is that the new icons will appear throughout the system, including the overview menu, edge panel, and even the settings app’s apps area.

This is how you can change and apply icon shape on Samsung One UI 4.0 and One UI 4.1 based on Android 12 using the Theme Park app. Remember that if you install the Theme Park app on Samsung Android 12 or Android 12 then you won’t get the Icon feature within the Theme Park app.
