Custom app icons transform your iPhone home screen from a generic grid into something that reflects your personality, but most tutorials involve convoluted steps through the Shortcuts app. A custom app icons shortcut for iPhone simplifies the entire process. Describe the app you want to restyle, point to your chosen image, and Turin builds the shortcut that creates a custom icon launcher in seconds.
The shortcut acts as a launcher: when tapped from the home screen, it opens your chosen app directly. The icon displayed on the home screen is whatever image you assign to the shortcut, a photo, an illustration, or any image from your library. Turin builds the launcher shortcut and walks you through assigning your custom image as the icon.
Go to getturin.com and describe your shortcut (e.g., 'Create a custom icon for Spotify using a photo I choose').
Wait a few seconds for Turin's AI to build the custom icon launcher shortcut.
Tap the 'Install' button, then assign your chosen image as the shortcut icon in the Shortcuts app.
Use any image from your photo library as an app icon without paying for a theme app.
Create custom icons for native Apple apps, third-party apps, or any app on your device.
Your original app icons remain untouched, the shortcut launcher sits alongside them and can be deleted anytime.

No subscription or App Store download is required.
Compatibility depends on the actions the shortcut uses and the software on your device. Review the generated actions before installing, especially when a shortcut relies on newer Apple features or third-party apps.
It depends on its actions. Device-only actions can run locally, while web, weather, AI, and other online services need a connection. Turin needs a connection to build and install the shortcut.
