The icon is similar to Gmail on iOS - "wide" black margins. Any idea why? Everything else seems to be working just fine, not slow or anything. The omnibox is r

The icon is similar to Gmail on iOS - "wide" black margins. Any idea why? Everything else seems to be working just fine, not slow or anything. The omnibox is really nice.

Probably in protest of iOS icon guidelines :P

Your icons _must_ be (rounded) squares. You can't use transparency.

  (rounded) square side = 114px = 2*57 tau=2pi area:= tau*r*r/2 Chrome: margin: 16px; radius: 41px = 57-16; area:= 840.5*tau Wordpress: margin: 12px; radius: 45px = 57-12; area:= 1012.5*tau Clock: margin: 9px; radius: 48px = 57- 9; area:= 1152.0*tau Circle: margin: 0px; radius: 57px = 57- 0; area:= 1624.5*tau (Measurments taken from a screenshot on iPod touch "retina" resolution.) So Chrome's circle area is 73% of Clock's and only 52% of the theoretical limit. While I was playing with this I got inspired by Google+ for iOS and Metro and asked "What if it doesn't fit, but insead fills the (rounded) square?" See for yourself. http://biserkov.com/pics/Chrome-on-iOS-icon-ideas.png http://biserkov.com/pics/Chrome-on-iOS-icon-ideas.png Blue circle radius: 21px; White circle radius: 25px Disclaimer: I used the svg Chrome logo from Wikipedia.
