Music Player Instinctiv’s Icon Poll

Instinctiv CEO Aniq Rahman emailed last week with a link asking me for my feedback for a poll.  I took it one step further by writing this post.

instinctiv poll

It took me about 5 seconds of deliberation to decide that the current icon (on the left) is way better both aesthetically and conceptually.  I don’t like the color choice for the cloud and the play button (if that’s what that is) comes off as extremely confusing and awkward.  On the other hand, the flower conveys growth, connectivity, and beauty.  It speaks to what Instinctiv (a music player excelling in mobile and desktop platforms) and what capabilities it has (i.e. sharing functions and song ID features).

This asks the question, how important is a logo for a music startup?  Is it more important than a band’s logo?  Tell us what you think.

UPDATE:   The poll is over.  The flower won.
