The visual customization of application representations on iOS 18 is a topic of interest for many users. This involves altering the appearance of the small images, known as application icons, that are displayed on the device’s home screen and app library. For example, a user might want to replace the default icon of the Mail application with a custom-designed image.
Altering application icons can provide several benefits. It allows for a more personalized and aesthetically pleasing user experience. Furthermore, customized visuals can improve app recognition and organization, particularly for users with numerous installed applications. Historically, iOS has presented challenges to direct icon modification, leading users to explore alternative methods.
