Are you feeling festive this holiday season and want to add some cheer to your WhatsApp icon? Good news – it’s easy to do! Whether you’re using an Android or iOS device, you can use a launcher to change your WhatsApp icon to a cute Christmas hat icon. Here’s how to do it:
Get a Christmas hat icon for WhatsApp
Step 1: Install a launcher
There are many different launchers available, but some popular options include Nova Launcher, Apex Launcher, and Action Launcher.
To install a launcher, open the Google Play Store (on Android) or the App Store (on iOS) and search for “launcher.” Choose a launcher that has good ratings and reviews, and tap “Install” to download it.
Step 2: Find a Christmas hat image
The next step is to find a Christmas hat image that you want to use as your WhatsApp icon. You can find lots of these online by searching for “Christmas hat clipart” or “Christmas hat emoji.” Make sure to choose an image that’s small enough to fit on your phone’s screen, but large enough to be easily recognizable.
Step 3: Save the image to your phone
Once you’ve found the perfect Christmas hat image, you’ll need to save it to your phone. You can do this by right-clicking on the image and selecting “Save Image As” (on a computer) or by tapping and holding on the image (on a phone). Choose a location on your phone to save the image, such as your camera roll or a folder in your file manager.
Step 4: Change your WhatsApp icon
Now it’s time to change your WhatsApp icon. Here’s how to do it:
- On Android:
- Open the launcher app on your phone.
- Tap on the “Home Screen Settings” button (it may look different depending on the launcher you’re using).
- Tap on the “Change Icon” button.
- Tap on the WhatsApp icon to select it.
- Tap on the “Change Icon” button again.
- Navigate to the folder where you saved the Christmas hat image and select it.
- Tap “Ok” to confirm the change.
- On iOS:
- Open the launcher app on your phone.
- Tap on the “Edit” button (it may look different depending on the launcher you’re using).
- Tap and hold the WhatsApp icon until it starts shaking.
- Tap on the “Change Icon” button.
- Navigate to the folder where you saved the Christmas hat image and select it.
- Tap “Done” to confirm the change.
Step 5: Enjoy your festive WhatsApp icon
That’s it! You now have a cute Christmas hat icon for WhatsApp. Every time you open WhatsApp, you’ll be greeted by a festive reminder of the holiday season.
Bonus Tip: If you want to go above and beyond, you can also add a Christmas hat to your WhatsApp profile picture. Simply follow the same steps as above, but choose “Set as profile picture” instead of “Change Icon” (on Android) or “Edit” (on iOS).
