This is good to know -- the icon for the app I am working on is blue as well, now I am considering changing it!
As a coder who understands UXP but is not great with design, I often fall back on blues or grays for my projects. For whatever reason I find that designs I make tend to look better in blue than other colors. Reds too often look pink, oranges and yellows are hard to keep from looking overpowering. Greens aren't too bad, but I still have trouble getting it to look just "right." Maybe it is just me.
