What is new for App Icon Tinting in iOS 26?

Yet another new feature for customizations allows any user to apply a tint to the colors of App icons on their home screen. This basically means that, if one wants to, he or she can paint the whole home screen with a tint of the exact color that their phone case has on it or even match it with the wallpaper.

What Is the Purpose of this Feature?

Customization has become a buzzword these days in smartphones. iOS users have always been somewhat limited, but those limitations have been broken now with iOS 26 because it gives more ways to personalize the experience.

While this feature lets you bring out a brand color or favorite color, for instance, if your phone case is colored in blue, then tinting the icons blue will create a more professional look for your phone.
