What does IconHarvester actually do?

In the current release, version 1.1.3, IconHarvester indexes themes, including contributed icons (icons not created by the original theme artist), and lets you install them quicker than you could manually.

Why do I have to find a “Download Link”, and what is it?

Because of a theme site’s formatting, download links may not always be found automatically by IconHarvester. In this case, it will present you with a webpage whereby you will need to search for the download link. It may be found on the first page or subsequent pages. Again, this is due to the themer’s formatting.

Can I install themes from Cydia?

No, IconHarvester has it's own database of themes of which it will install from. IconHarvester will scan existing themes installed from Cydia or elsewhere and attempt to let you customize them.

Why do some themes give me errors?

We have no control over the themes themselves. Sometimes they’re formatted incorrectly, sometimes the website they're hosted on is down. If you plan to create themes and want them to be compatible with IconHarvester, please read our Themer’s Guide.

Why does IconHarvester give me an Access Denied error?

Sometimes payments may take longer than usual to complete processing. Wait a few minutes and then try again.
