There is a new function since iOS18, under customizations you can display the app icon background in dark. It would be nice if this could also be adapted here. Unfortunately, the battery usage of this app is unusually high for me, just like the document & data storage. Although I don't use the app much.
This is my Audible app icon — I don’t even know what the orange thing is, found it in bathroom Have been taking pics of real world objects and then using iOS shortcuts to replace normal app icons
Yesterday in a response to a "what is your most recent camera roll photo" ask I shared a random picture I'd taken for the purpose of turning it into a custom app icon using the iOS Shortcuts app. (The link on this rec is to a YT video for how to do this.) I've been slowly changing my phone icons to photos I've taken. Here's where I'm at right now:
VLC — a folded piece of paper on an orange notebook Audible — the corner of an orange plastic comb thing PI.FYI — A paper star cut out with a razor blade Voice Memo — An unflattering picture of me superwhisper — The top of a spice jar of cinnamon (this one is my favorite...I wanted it to look like a record button!)
Every time I look at these particular apps, I feel a little spark of creative joy.
...I'm not rushing into this, just keeping my eyes open and letting the muse find me.
