An orange cylinder with a tapered yellow/tan end? Yeah that looks like a cartoon pencil. I can tell that every other icon uses an ink pen, too.

You are considering it within a set of icons and I’m only judging it on its own. If every other iPhone app looks the same then yeah I get it

I think the ink pot is the best picture of the bunch but I only look at icons when they’re tiny and don’t prefer when they’re super detailed like that
