This is an Android notification icon project that provides standardized monochrome icon resources for apps and vendor systems that do not conform to the Android standard notification design.
This project was created to bring order to the fragmented third-party app ecosystem, so that third-party app notification icons can also follow the Android standard notification icon design guidelines.
At its root, the problem is the ecosystem fragmentation caused by MIUI's non-standard Xiaomi Push notification icons. Other vendors have not fully resolved it either. Instead, most adopted Apple's approach of using an app's launcher icon as its primary notification icon, a deceptive kind of "solution". vivo maintained its own set of monochrome notification icons, but gradually abandoned that approach in later versions of OriginOS.
As the project lead, I believe Google is responsible for this problem. Android clearly specifies notification icon design guidelines, but Google has not enforced them on vendors, allowing vendors to undermine the standard notification icon design without constraint.
Most ironically, Google itself abandoned the mandatory notification icon tinting guideline in Android 16 and set notification icons in the notification panel to app launcher icons, completing its wholesale concession to the ecosystem.
This project began in 2022 under the name AndroidNotifyIconAdapt. That ill-fitting name once left the project with resources but no standards. It has now been officially renamed Android Notification Icon Project (codenamed ANIP) and its original icon resource rules have been completely revised. The project will now move toward more modern, continuous community maintenance.
This project has been changed from the original AGPL-3.0 license to Apache-2.0. ANIP will continue to be open under the current license, and anyone can use, modify, and distribute the resources of this project in compliance with the license. Changes to the license do not automatically apply to previous versions.
