"If you type "source ~/.guix-profile/etc/profile" from a Bash shell, it 
loads the needed environment variable"

yes it worked, but thats not really what im asking as this is workaround 
for the issue but im asking for a solution to the users as they can type 
the app name and it should run and icon should be shown somewhere on 
application menu or desktop or so.

flatpak , snap which work almost similarly to guix can do that then guix 
should do that as well.

otherwise guix should mention that there wont be icons nor ability to 
run the applications from terminal unless you do 1 2 3 after guix app 
installaion which is sadly a downside for new comers.
