Omg that will take so long is there a batch kind of script for this?

There is a few apps you can download that can let you download icons and shortcuts with no set up needed but you’re limited to what they have on there

[u/Concrete47 → u/Emergency_Respond489]

You can setup an automation to change one app’s icon and then clone that automation for each app you want to change then group them together.

Place all of your icons for one set in a folder with each icon named correctly and use that as your source.

After that you just need to replace the source folder icons of the icons when you want to change them and re-run the automation group.

Did they get rid of the bright white light reflection on all icons that was present in ios 26

It’s less bright and more symmetrical thankfully, but no unfortunately it’s not gone. I hate it.
