Will I have to re-do my icons every update?
Reply · 2 years ago

No, if your icons are working fine there's no reason to redo them. (Also, you accidentally posted this question twice.)

Sadly this is not possible, Apple limits what shortcuts and configuration profiles can do. A jailbreak tweak such as SnowBoard or Anemone is required for a higher level of customization.

Sorry for the late reply, but if it’s still happening, uninstalling and reinstalling the Shortcuts app should fix it.

If you mean the functionality of this specific shortcut or configuration profiles, I just happened to stumble upon the Apple web clip documentation that shows this is now possible here: <https://developer.apple.com/documentation/devicemanagement/webclip>. For making configuration profiles in general: https://developer.apple.com/business/documentation/Configuration-Profile-Reference.pdf

(If you just want to make shortcuts, don’t bother with these. Configuration profiles have very specific use cases and most of the time you won’t need to use them in shortcuts.)

@titanhowl

Just got the new update today. Brilliant. Thanks for all your work. Turning reduce motion on does significantly improve & make the transition between system apps & the shortcut almost seamless. However.. I only want it turned on for opening system apps. Is there a way to do that? I know I can make an automation to turn it off during the close of an app, so no worries there... But what about only having it on for the opening of system apps only? How do I go about that? Thanks!
Reply · 1 year, 12 months ago

@nyuszika7h Member Author

Hmm, this is not that simple. Unfortunately the “app” that opens first here is a web clip that can’t be selected for the Open App automation. There are two ways to go about this: one is creating a shortcut “Turn Reduce Motion On, Open App, Turn Reduce Motion Off”. The other is if I modify the shortcut to create non-fullscreen web clips, then it goes through Safari instead and you can set an Open App automation on Safari.
Reply · 1 year, 12 months ago

@nyuszika7h Member Author

I can possibly add this in a future update (you’d still have to set up the automation manually) but I’m not sure if everyone would prefer this over the current behavior, although most people (me included) seem to prefer not to have Reduce Motion on all the time.
Reply · 1 year, 12 months ago

@Psands

Is there a way to loop a Icon-Themer Shortcut back into the shortcut app. For example, Turn Reduce Motion On > Run Icon Themer Shortcut (Opens app without opening shortcuts) > Turn Reduce Motion Off

That’s weird, because I think 0.4.0 may have introduced an issue with non-ASCII characters, but I tried fancy mathematical symbols (“fonts”) on 0.4.3 and it works. Can you send me an example of some Russian text you tried to use as label?

I'm sorry. Apparently, after the first launch of the command, the update did not come 0.4.3, but another one and there was this problem. Now I tried to come back in again and the offer was updated to version 0.4.3 and the problem with the Russian language did not happen again

In the safari system application, after the release of their browser and return, the last tab on which there was a transition opens on the screen, rather than the one I chose before leaving the browser. That is, for example, I go to the browser search and find an article, follow the link and the second tab with the article opens. Then, for example, open all the active tabs with a button and just go back to the previous one, where the search parameter was entered.
Reply · 1 year, 12 months ago

@nyuszika7h Member Author

Hmm, I see what you mean, it opens the most recently opened tab instead of where you left off... that’s annoying, but I don’t know if it’s possible to fix :/ At least maybe it’s better than the previous method which always opened a new tab.
Reply · 1 year, 12 months ago

@anton17

Is there any hope that all system applications will also start opening as a Safari browser without opening the black screen or command application and without having to disable the motion reduction feature? Otherwise, your work is very useful and the team is very cool
Reply · 1 year, 12 months ago

@nyuszika7h Member Author

Well, I don't see a way to work around this issue right now, there are three almost equally bad options, Reduce Motion helps a bit with each but I understand you may not want it turned on permanently. It is possible to have them open through Safari but that's not really much better than going through a blank page or Shortcuts IMO.

This thing blows my mind and works so easily... Is it possible to have this trigger a Shortcut? I have a shortcut that opens a list of apps, which I use like a folder... but it would be WAY better to have a custom icon than have to use a huge shortcut widget. Edit: I tried to use “shortcuts://run-shortcut?name=<shortcut name>” but it doesn’t work for me.

Reply · 1 year, 12 months ago

@rockstar2200

No one should use this! This has some serious security issues. First of all, any custom photo used on the icon is in fact uploaded to a server, not just a directory from your device. And second, profiles used like this allow for a remote view of your device. So you just gave up security to change some icons. Not a good idea at all!
Reply · 1 year, 12 months ago

@Rhinozz

What you are saying is completely false. Any custom photo comes straight from your device and the shortcut is not run from a server, but your own device. Profiles like this are created through code - not all are malicious. Both myself and others have peer checked the code and all it does is create a profile that runs an app clip. Your security is not at risk.
Reply · 1 year, 12 months ago

@rockstar2200

Nope you are incorrect, doesn't take a rocket scientist to watch the packets as soon as you pick a photo. That photo is offloaded, there's no debate about it but no one out there is doing their homework. Same goes for the profile image that is made, packets go off the device. And they aren't small, they are the exact same size as the photos being used.

You just need to check if you and remove the profile and bookmark and that it is not flooding the Home Screen with icons.

You do not know anything about code, shortcuts, or anything about it. You (probably) watched a YouTube video showing how amazing this shortcut is and decided you want to check it out. You came here, looked through the comments and decided to make this shortcut look bad. You create a routinehub account to just say that this shortcut is bad. If you want proof look through the shortcut’s code, and see that the photos you pick doesn’t get uploaded to a server. But (continue on the next comment)
Reply · 1 year, 11 months ago

@tbb

you say: Why does it need data from other websites? One of them is a gist.GitHub.com which is where people host code. In this case he/she hosted URL schemes for system apps. Other ones is when you choose the default icon for that App Store app, it gets the icon feom the “artwork URL” Each app has it’s own artwork URL. It looks like a broken down hyperlink or a server. It is not one of those things. So, THIS SHORTCUT IS NOT MALICIOUS IN ANY WAY!

Reply · 1 year, 12 months ago

@Rhinozz

Those apps are system apps. For some reason, Apple bypasses a check for system apps (that's the highly simplified explanation) so they can't be opened seamlessly. This means they have to go through an app. Some apps can be run from the app you click on - it'll be a black screen and then the app, as you're describing. Some apps are private and the app created can't open them, so they have to go through shortcuts. A few apps can't be opened at all because they don't have any way to open them.

Reply · 1 year, 12 months ago

@Rhinozz

If the app is a beta of an app on the app store, just use the app store option and pick the non-beta app. They have the same URL scheme/x-callback URL and bundle ID, so they should work. If it isn't on the app store, you have to find the bundle ID yourself through iExplorer/some other method. That's an easy google search.

Is it possible or can you please make it possible to join existing profiles together? So example I have a profile with 10 icons created and another with 20 icons, merger those together to have a profile with 30 in it without redoing all 30 icons in a new profile. I do love your app and have made some great themes with it! Just want to neaten up some if possible without redoing them. Thank You drinkey.

Hi, I used this shortcut on my iPhone and it worked just fine. I’m now trying to use it on my friend’s phone and I’m having trouble finding apps like Hulu and Cash App in the App Store even though I didn’t have any issue finding them in mine. Also after installing shortcuts for apps like Amazon and Chipotle, they wouldn’t open. Tapping on the shortcut wouldn’t do anything. Any ideas as to why this is happening and/or how to fix it?

That's because the apps they linked to are not from the region you live in. I dug through the Icon Themer shortcut script and found that in the step where it says "Search App Store for 'Text'" step, the region is set to Hungary. Just change the region to the region you live in (e.g. United States), and the search will then function perfectly.

Just writing to notify you of a quirk with the eBay app, not sure if it can be resolved. Some sort of cache appears to be happening, as when new items appear in a saved search (showing the blue dot next to the search) and you tap on it, the dot goes away as normal until you launch the app from the shortcut again. Then those same dots appear next to the same searches as if the user hasn’t acknowledged the notification on each. Please let me know if there is no possible fix or workaround for this.

This has been mentioned in a few post, but nothing of real solution really came of it. I've read the mention of a bundle ID, and such for non-app store apps. Likely can be used for normal App's as well. The issue is when searching, you can't find some apps within the app store. Is there any solution for this, or at least some formalized docs on how to solve it. I can help create them if you wish.

I did find it and was able to get Best Buy perfectly fine.

So I’m not sure what that means, it gives me two options, “OK” and “Show”, when I select show it takes me to a part of the script
Reply · 1 year, 10 months ago

part of the script where is shows options for “Network: get contents of...” and under that will be “Variables: set variable bundleid....”. So again, not sure what that means but won’t let me install or create shortcut for AMC theaters. However, great find and awesome instructions, I found it with no issues and will check other apps.

why does it say you have one icon so far? How do I then get the icon onto my home screen and I’m trying to do it on iPad and iPhone and I don’t know what to do after it says you have one icon so far, it doesn’t lead me somewhere... HELP PLEASE xx

This shortcut has worked flawlessly, although I encountered only 1 minor problem. I just updated my IconThemer to the latest version (0.9.0). I noticed that whenever I insert fancy fonts or characters, a bunch of random letters show up for the app name on the homescreen. When I was the version previous of the current version, I never experienced this problem. Is there a way, or will it ever be fixed in the future?

The latest update does not support special characters. They are characterized and displayed on the home screen.

@hereForTheFood

I keep having issues with a black outline on my icons. Does this have to do with the icon itself, as in it's not big enough or the border radius is incorrect? Does the image you use have to be the exact size of the app icon? It's a little hard to check, since you can't preview the image on the icon and I have to remake the profile each test.

For some reason whenever I try to use the shortcut I’ll finish naming the shortcut like the step right before it’ll let you install it and it’ll either never pop up or it’ll make me leave the app. Help?

Hey!! This was working perfectly well the other day, but I'm trying to change my icons again and now each time I try to create a profile, it reads the "Bad Profile" message, even when my pictures are 400x400 and/or PNG files. Could this be a new glitch, is my phone too old, or am I doing something else wrong?

I just updated it to the latest version and now every time I go to enable all of my icons, it takes me to a page and says my network connection is unstable and to restore the unfinished profile, but when I do that the same thing happens all over again? Is there a way to download an older version?

Hi.. i love this shortcut, but i recently used an icon pack which has glyphs. Icons created with this doesnt have the transparent background, it adds a black or white background to it and hence icons dont look like glyphs. It would be great if glyph support can be added. Thanks again

Hey so Icon themer was working great until a couple days ago. Every time I try to make a new app icon, it says Error, the profile creation failed. It tells me to make sure I have a stable internet connection, (which I do, I even tried it with my data). It says to use the restore unfinished profile option but it still does the exact same Error message every time. Help.

First and foremost, I want to say thank you for your hard work on this. And for my question, assuming that I have custom icons for two themes, A and B. Can I add new icons for both themes simultaneously without eliminate the progress done so far for both themes?

@chengcheng2

Hey man, first of all thanks you for this amazin work! Can't imagine the hustle. It works great but I have a serious problem since I'm using it. My springboard or UI seems to reboot once every 1-2 days since I customized my icons. And after 3-4 days it seems to reboot but then ends in an apple logo boot loop. I have it the third time in 3 weeks now and it is really annoying to reinstall everything from my backup again. I'm using an iphone x with the latest available iOS (no beta)

I understand this shortcut is using x callback url to work. Maybe you could create a shortcut to get x callback url for any app (that we can use after in a regular shortcut with open url action)? Do u see what I mean ? Anyway awesome work!

So my Icon themed isn’t creating anymore icons for me. I wanted to change the theme of my phone so I deleted my existing icons for the ones I wanted to change, and now it won’t produce anymore. I’ve tried deleting icon themed from my phone and shortcuts and redone loading it twice but still won’t work. I currently have iOS 14.4

I love this shortcut you have created! I encountered a really unfortunate discovery when switching to a new phone. i had the iphone 7 and traded it for the 10, so i switched all my data from old phone to new phone and to my surprise ALL the icons i’d downloaded had not been transferred to the new phone. my question is: is it possible that if or when i get a new phone to still be able to re download those icons/profiles again? since i backed up my data.

I think the icon themer should have a review photo that you chose to use with a specific app in other words I’ve had troubles in the past with certain photos and when I install the custom app onto my Home Screen the photo isn’t the way I want it to look so I have to end up deleting and redoing it all over again till it’s exactly how I want it so I feel that feature would be amazing to have with icon themer

Hi is there anyway you can update it to make it work for IOS 14.5.1?
Reply · 1 year, 4 months ago

@FifiTheBulldog

Apple broke the features of web clips on non-enterprise devices that allow Icon Themer to work on iOS 14.5. (See https://iconthemer.app) So no, there’s no way to make Icon Themer work on iOS 14.5.1. Use normal shortcuts with the Open App action to make custom icons instead, like it was before iOS 14; Apple removed the redirect for those for all apps, making Icon Themer unnecessary.

@Lucus-Routine

What exactly do you mean by “Open App action”?
Reply · 1 year, 2 months ago

@FifiTheBulldog

For example: to make a themed icon for Safari, create a shortcut with the "Open App" action and choose Safari in the action's app field. Then add that shortcut to the home screen, selecting a custom icon from your photos or files.
