How to tint your app icons in iOS 18

For several years now, it’s been possible to personalize your iPhone screen by creating your own icons, mostly by using Apple’s built-in Shortcuts app ( and we have instructions for doing just that).

Just go back to the pop-up menu and choose Light / Dark / Automatic, and your icons will be their old familiar colors.
