+<p>An icon is a graphic that takes up a small portion of screen real estate and provides a quick,
+intuitive representation of an action, a status, or an app.</p>
+
+
+
+<h2 id="launcher">Launcher</h2>
+
+<p>The launcher icon is the visual representation of your app on the Home or All Apps screen. Since the

+any type of background.</p>

+

+
+<p>Within the body of your app, use small icons to surface actions and/or provide status for specific
+items. For example, in the Gmail app, each message has a star icon that marks the message as
+important.</p>

+<p>Use non-neutral colors sparingly and with purpose. For example, Gmail uses yellow in the star icon
