“We designed the new icon to spark anticipation, excitement, and joy when customers start their shopping journey on their phone, just as they do when they see our boxes on their doorstep,” Andrews said in a statement. In the tweaked app logo now, the blue strip has been changed to look like someone is tearing the tape.
