The Top 9 Free and Paid iPhone Icon Packs to Personalize Your Home Screen

The iPhone home screen felt like Apple's decision, not yours, for a long time. However, all of that was altered with the release of iOS 14, which included additional choices for customizing the home screen, such as redesigned widgets and the capacity to make unique program icons. 

After discussing the top widget apps previously, we are going to delve more into the topic of custom app icon packs for iPhones today.  

Revision: 

Apple now lets you personalize the icons on your home screen with iOS 18. To match your background or personal preferences, you can apply color tints, enlarge icons, remove labels, and convert to dark mode. Here are some details about iOS 18's home screen personalization.

How to Customize Your iPhone's App Icons

You cannot download an icon pack and replace all of your iPhone's icons, unlike Android (iOS is still restricted). There is a workaround: you may customize the shortcuts with their own names and icons using the Shortcuts app. Here's how to do it:

1. Launch the iPhone Shortcuts app. In the upper right corner, tap +, and select Add Action.  2. Look for Open App and select it with a press.






3. Tap on App and choose the app whose icon you wish to modify. I will go with that since I want to update the Instagram app's symbol.  

4. Press the Share symbol located at the bottom right.








Step 5: Select "Add to Home Screen."  

6. Change the shortcut's name to the name of the program (Instagram in my instance). Next, choose Gallery > Choose Photo and pick the icon you wish to swap it out for.





5. In the upper right corner, select Add.






It is there. On your iPhone home screen, you now have your new icon shortcut.


The Best iPhone Icon Packs, Both Paid and Free

Here are the top paid and free sources for downloading icon image files, now that you know how to add custom icons to iPhone apps.

1. The iOS Icon Library by Flaticons (Free)


There are thousands of icons in Flaticons' free library to select from. Simply visit their website to peruse the pre-made icon sets they have organized by category. 

Alternatively, you might look for the particular program you wish to modify.  

My personal faves are the Apple logos (a modern twist on the iconic iOS icons), the social media packed theme (black and white), and the social media flat icons (which really give me material icon feelings).  

Keep in mind that downloading the complete icon collection could necessitate a paid subscription. It can be laborious to collect each icon individually.  

More than a thousand icons

2. The free iCons8 Monochrome Icon Library



Want to give your iPhone a sleek, monochromatic look? Hundreds of basic and aesthetically beautiful black and white icons may be found in iCons8. To establish a consistent look, select from the iOS 17 Glyph, iOS 17 Filled, and iOS 17 Outlined icon sets.  In addition to the logos of well-known apps, you can also see icons for things like texting, navigation, shopping, gaming, transportation, and more. If you can not find the exact program icon you are looking for, these can be your saving grace.  More than a thousand icons

3. The freemium Moloka App Icon Changer







Icon theming applications for iPhones are generally not my thing because most of them are either unreliable or need a subscription. Moloka, though, is distinct. 

More than thirty different icon themes are packed with it, including Valentine's Day, Halloween, Manga, Christmas classics, iOS 6 throwbacks, and Big Sur, which is my personal favorite.  

There is no need to make shortcuts. Simply launch the program, select your preferred theme from the gallery, and then select "Install System Icons." Once you follow the simple steps, Moloka will automatically create beautiful icons for all of your apps. Even better, you can design your own unique icons.

Certain themes are available for free, but others (marked with a "+") need to be purchased. Note that most packs only cover system icons, and some users may find the app's shortcut approach to cause a minor lag when tapping icons.  Icons: More than 1000 icons, more than 30 icon packs




4. Free Minimal Icons from Design Shack



More than 150 simple, dark-themed icons are available at Design Shack for all of your favorite iPhone apps, such as Among Us, Snapchat, Discord, and others. 

These icons, which have a black background and crisp white logos, work perfectly with dark wallpapers.  Each month, new designs are added to the pack, which is updated frequently. Every icon in the free version is black. In contrast, additional icon variations in white, beige, blue, purple, red, and teal can be unlocked with a $9 premium subscription.  Over 150 icons in total.

5. The free Felicity Pro iOS Icon Pack



Admire your iPhone icons, but would like to add a little personal flair? Felicity Pro enables you to do it. It makes use of stock iOS icons, but with richer color schemes, crisper glyphs, and deeper shadows. In this manner, you can have personalized icons without deviating too much from the traditional iOS design.  It includes roughly fifty different icons. 

Some of these variant icons date back to the iOS 9 and 10 generations. If you like the way those older versions looked and felt, you will adore these.  Over 700 icons in total.

Essentially, the new icon collection from Gridfiti gives your apps iPhone-colored icons. You can choose to match your phone or just change things up with their themes, which are based on the hues of the iPhone 13 and 13 Pro.  There is an icon pack that precisely matches your iPhone, whether it be the classic Sierra Blue, Gold, Silver, or Graphite model or one of the following colors: Pink, Blue, Red, or Black. 

With four hues, each icon theme has more than eight hundred icons.  Keep in mind that each pack costs $10, and that each colorway is available individually, so pick carefully.  Over 800 icons in total.

8. iPhone Icons with Gyan Handcut Design (Paid, $2)



I was looking via Reddit for a distinctive but understated iPhone icon pack. Though there were plenty of interesting choices, Gyan's exquisite usage of various tones of purple drew my attention. 

More than 240 icons are included, along with over ten different variations. Numerous well-known apps are represented by icons, such as Walli, Google Keep, Fiverr, and Tinder.  

Every month, the icon set will be updated, according to the developer. Moreover, you can ask for up to ten icons for the programs you use. This is one of the prettiest icon packs available for $2, especially if you have a pink or purple iPhone.  Over 240 icons in total
