If you install the iOS 18 beta on your iPhone, you can check out the customizable Home Screen app icons.
Yesterday we showed you how to set up your iPhone running iOS 18 so that you can arrange to open any app on the Lock Screen. For example, if you use Shazam often, you can save time by having that app’s icon replace either the camera or flashlight icon on the Lock Screen. When you hear a song and must know the title and the artist, pressing the icon will quickly open Shazam. You can replace one of the icons, replace both icons, or keep the current setup.
Those with an eligible iPhone model can now install iOS 18 Developer Beta 3 or iOS 18 Public Beta 1 and play around with the customizable Home Screen icons. Let’s face it, iPhone users probably thought that they would never get the opportunity to change the color or placement of Home Screen app icons unless they switched to an Android handset. The grid of app icons that the iPhone has been known for has been around since the original generation model was released in 2007.
