    I mean, of all the ways to manipulate people into paying money on an app, I feel like changing the app icon to draw attention is fairly benign?

      It’s a [accidentally(?) nightmare-fuel] sad face designed to get you back in so you spend money. It might not be the worst thing ever, but it’s still pretty gross. Also the app is used by children.

        It’s not scary in any way though? Or inappropriate for kids in any way?

        Calling it nightmare fuel is quite the stretch tbh. It’s like calling a 6ft basketball player incredibly tall.
