The logo

One bird, many looks

The Bivela bird is our mark. Here are all its looks: eight icons for the app, and the looks the app uses to tell you what is going on.

No sound; a tap or the Esc key closes it.

Eight icons for the app

In the Android and iPhone apps, choose one under Settings → Appearance → Bivela logo; both the app icon on your home screen and the bird you see inside the app change.

  • Light: The icon Bivela has always had, and the default: the bird on white.

The looks the app shows

Each has a place in the app, and they stay as they are whichever logo you choose.

  • Pressed / active: A glowing turquoise ring round the tile. In the app the same ring marks your current choice in settings.

A few notes

  • Your phone may take a few seconds to change the icon; some Android launchers close the app for a moment, and iPhone asks you to confirm once.
  • The app icon changes only on this phone, and nothing about you goes anywhere.
  • The white and black birds follow a light or dark background inside the app.
