This feature would definitely support onboarding and transitions from other tools. I work for a project-based consulting company, and I need to be able to quickly scan through my clients and projects. The limited number of icons is a big challenge for us.
I’d love to see a model like 1Password uses: I can select from a limited number of icons, or upload a new icon to be used once. When I upload an icon, it’s not going to a library where I can select it later.
Been an Asana user for two years, and still waiting for this basic feature. Everyone above me on this thread has said the same: this is one of those fixes that would add a lot of value at a seemingly low development cost. Help us out here!
It would be great to have the ability to upload a custom image/thumbnail to serve as the project icon instead of selecting one of the stock icons. We work on 100+ events a year and seeing a familiar event logo makes the project stand out in our workflow better.
I don’t work for Asana but I can understand why they wouldn’t allow it. One reason being that Asana could become really ugly in some organisation, and people will make the connection “Asana = ugly” without realising this is because of their own company
Hi @Bastien_Siebman I do not agree. Des goûts et des couleurs, on ne discute pas.
I think that allowing more personalisation would contribute to the use of Asana.
The very fact that you have to pay more to use a custom logo in Asana is questionable. Focus should be on the user experience, not on spreading the Asana brand.
Obviously it is not up to us to decide that, but the forum is a good place to talk about it
That’s exactly the same debate around apps in iOS and Android. iOS is way more regarding on guidelines, when Android let you do anything. The result is that on Android apps would often be buggy, ugly etc #troll
Hi @anon57734020, welcome to the Asana Community Forum
While this feature isn’t available at this time, hopefully it’s something our Product team can implement in the future
We do have an existing thread for this feature request in the #productfeedback category so I’ve gone ahead and merged your post with the existing one to consolidate feedback.
I’ll keep you posted and let you know if I have any updates
The lack of this, which I think is a basic common sense feature, was one of the first things I noticed as I began to use ASANA, and the first thing I searched for in the forum.
Seeing how long this has been discussed and in so many now ‘merged’ threads, and the lack of response other than said merging, is a bit concerning
Is there a way to do this yet, nearly 4 years after the request?
As a web developer, having such a feature is not a big task, should take half a day or so for a developer to add an image upload field to show instead of the project icon.
Then we can upload custom logos or whatever for the project images. Pink colour means nothing to me.
We now have lots of projects and it would be really helpful if we could upload our own image, instead of only selecting from the Asana icons.
Please make this feature available.
I am with you on this.
We are also testing Notion and Asana side by side.
These icons are from the early 1990s.
We have a lot of projects and need strong visual distinguishing features:
Custom Icons
Custom Colours
Custom Backgrounds
Custom Patterns

We need a listening project management partner.
This thread is 4 years old!
Please invest the 1hr development cost to implement this library.
Just adding weight to this thread… cannot understand why pretty much all other apps out there allow you to upload your own avatar/icons, it shouldn’t be difficult. At least add more icons to the available options on a regular basis! Apple makes a whole marketing story about an update containing 'new emoji’s! Come on Asana, if it’s too difficult to allow custom icons, at very least regularly introduce new ones.
