While iOS 14 brings some much-needed customizability to iOS, iPhones are still missing a few key features when it comes to customization. Namely, the ability to use custom icon packs. Custom icon packs allow you to drastically change the look of your device, which can be a huge plus for some users. Luckily, there's a quick workaround that allows you to change app icons on iOS without jailbreaking your device. So, let's get started.
iPhone | iOS How to Change Your App Icons Using Shortcuts
Rather than directly modifying icon packs that require root-level filesystem access, we’ll use Apple’s Shortcuts app to help you create shortcuts for specific apps that you can then customize however you like. The only downside to this workaround is that the new icon will first open Shortcuts, then the app you’ve assigned to it. This may be a dealbreaker for some users, but it’s currently the only way to customize icons on an iOS device.
