Launch Center Pro now lets you change iOS app icons without using Shortcuts - 9to5Mac

Since the public release of iOS 14, users have been discovering new ways to customize their home screens with widgets and custom icons.

While the most popular method requires using Apple Shortcuts to change icons, which adds an extra step to the process of opening apps, Launch Center Pro now lets you change iOS app icons without Shortcuts.

Launch Center Pro is a popular iOS app that offers multiple options for creating home screen shortcuts to tasks like calls, messages, and more — it works just like Apple’s Shortcuts app.

However, its latest update brings a new feature that makes it extremely easy to change the appearance of the iOS home screen, all without needing the Shortcuts app.

Launch Center Pro uses configuration profiles to add custom icons to the iOS home screen without ever running the Shortcuts app, so the process becomes easier and more intuitive.

Once you’re done, Launch Center Pro generates a configuration profile with shortcuts to all the apps you’ve chosen, each one with custom icons.

Here you can see how apps with custom icons open instantly, something you still can’t do using the Shortcuts app:.
