App Shortcut icon

app_shortcut: a legacy Material Icons icon. Copy its <mat-icon> code for Angular Material.

app_shortcut is only in the legacy Material Icons font, which Google no longer updates. To keep using it, load the legacy font and set fontSet="material-icons".

How to customize the App Shortcut icon in Angular Material

Use the controls at the top of this page to preview app_shortcut at any size and color, then copy the code. Here is what each setting does in your own Angular app.

Change the App Shortcut icon size

<mat-icon> is fixed at 24 × 24 px, so set width and height along with font-size or the App Shortcut glyph will overflow its box.

<mat-icon fontSet="material-icons" class="app-shortcut-icon">app_shortcut</mat-icon>

.app-shortcut-icon {
  font-size: 40px;
  width: 40px;
  height: 40px;
}

Change the App Shortcut icon color

The icon is a font glyph, so it takes the CSS text color. Set color on the <mat-icon> or on a parent, or use a theme variable to follow light and dark mode.

.app-shortcut-icon {
  color: #1a73e8;
  /* or follow your Material 3 theme */
  color: var(--mat-sys-primary);
}

App Shortcut icon FAQ

How do I change the color of the App Shortcut icon in Angular Material?
Give the <mat-icon> a class and set the CSS color property, for example .app-shortcut-icon { color: #1a73e8; }. The app_shortcut icon is a font glyph, so any text color works, including theme variables such as var(--mat-sys-primary).
How do I make the App Shortcut icon bigger?
Set font-size, width and height together, for example font-size: 40px; width: 40px; height: 40px;. <mat-icon> has a fixed 24px box, so changing font-size alone makes the icon overflow.
