This App Lets Users Easily Create Custom App Icons on iOS 14 Devices

Oct. 25, 2020

Apple, with therelease of its latest iOS and iPadOS 14, finally gave its users the option totruly customize their home screens. Now, although there are all kinds of dynamic widgets to add to the home screen, users still cannot use custom app icons for the apps. However, tech geeks came up witha workaround for adding custom app iconsusing the “Shortcuts” app. One guy evenearned Rs. 84 lakhs by selling custom icon packson the internet. But now, there’s no need for these custom icon packs because there is an app that lets you create your own custom icons for apps.

Launch Center Pro is a popular iOS app that lets users create custom actions to perform different tasks in iOS and iPadOS. It is pretty similar to Apple’s “Shortcuts” app. However, with its latest update, the app is nowallowing its users to create custom app icons for any appon your iOS or iPadOS device.

Now, in theprevious method, although users could create the app icons in the Shortcuts app, whenever they opened an app with a custom icon, iOS or iPadOS opened the Shortcuts app first, before opening the actual app. However, asLaunch Center Pro uses the configuration profiles to add the custom icons, the apps with the custom icons open without opening the “Shortcuts” app first.

Moreover, there is nowa new “Icon Composer” in the appwith which users can create their own icons, with unique colors, badges, and glyphs.

Once the user is done creating the custom icons, the app creates a configuration profile for the apps with the custom icons.
