Identifying Connected Multiplayer Servers on Your Taskbar

Tracking Multiplayer Sessions

Dynamic App Icon Mod changes the Minecraft application icon whenever you join a multiplayer server. This lets you quickly distinguish between different game sessions or tabbed-out windows without opening each client to read the chat or server name.

Joining and Observing Server Icons

1. From the Minecraft main menu, select Multiplayer.

2. Select an active server from your server list and click Join Server.

3. Once you connect and load into the multiplayer world, the mod dynamically updates your system application icon to display that specific server's icon.

4. Press your system window-switch shortcut (such as Alt + Tab or the application dock preview) to inspect your open windows. The Minecraft entry will now display the distinct server icon.

5. When you disconnect from the server and connect to a different one, the mod immediately refreshes the application icon to reflect the new server session.
