Revert the icons to the multi-colored versions!
This is an Adobe CC wide issue but AE is where I notice it the most.
Please revert the icons to the multi-colored versions! It makes no sense to make them the same color when the "themes" break down beyond video and photo use. I used the colors to quickly locate the software I needed to open, now I have a taskbar full of purple and have to squint to tell which letters I am clicking on.
It seems like a very poor design choice that was likely made by the boardroom, not the creative team, and I beg you to change the icons back - or at least give US the option to have the multiple colors instead of mono-purple, which I'll add looks horrendous on a dark theme display.

Simple to evolve this Adobe and meet you half-way here.
For video KEEP the Purple Square, but alter the colours of the INTERNAL LETTERS to -- white / pure yellow / light Yellow / Bee Yellow / light purple

Yes! Like Instagram lets you choose which colour/theme icon. I chose the funkiest one and now getting mixed up with messenger and Instagram because the colours are the same so goes to show how important colours are for our information processing!

So true... the colours now are the same for all the app... When I try to switch from an app to the other it's so confusing

With the type the same color, the icons [Ae] [Me] [Au] look very similar on the black Windows 10 taskbar.
