If you have been utilizing an iPhone, you clearly realize that the customization iOS offers, is alongside nothing. You can change the wallpaper, arrange the app icons, and that’s all. iOS was never designed to be an operating system that a user would customize too much. It is intended to simply work. In any case, on the off chance that you would like to modify the look of your home screen, you’re in good fortune. In this article, I will reveal to you how you can alter the look of your iPhone home screen, without jailbreaking it.

Use iEmpty to Customize Home Screen:

iEmpty is a website that offers customization tools for iOS, that you can use to alter the look of your iPhone home screen. This website will allow you to create blank icons for your home screen, which will essentially let you arrange the icons on your home screen in whichever way you want, with blank spaces in between. iEmpty can likewise be utilized to make custom application symbols for your iPhone, and this, without having to escape your gadget.

I will reveal to you how you can utilize iEmpty to make blank icons, and how you can use these blank icons to arrange your apps in whatever way you want. I will likewise disclose to you how you can utilize iEmpty to make custom application symbols for your home screen.

1. Customize Home Screen with Blank Icons:

To customize your home screen using blank icons, follow the steps below:

• In Safari on your iPhone, go to the iEmpty website. Here, tap on “Create Blank Icons“.

• On the next screen, tap on “Add”, under the title “Customize”. This will take you to an upload page where you have to upload a screenshot of your home screen. To do this, first, tap and hold on any icon on your home screen to enter “edit” mode. Then, swipe left until you reach the blank home screen with only the dock showing. Take a screenshot of this screen, and upload that to iEmpty.

• Tap on “Choose File “, and select your screenshot from your Photo Library. Then, tap on “Upload Photo “.

• Scroll down, and you will see your home screen with the blank icons overlaid. You can tap on the position where you want a blank icon to appear. I’ll choose 3×3 for now.

• iEmpty will then open up a page with the icon. Now, simply tap on the share icon in Safari, and select “Add to Home screen “.

• You will see the icon, along with a question mark. Simply tap on “Add”.

• You will see the icon appear on the home screen. Simply tap and hold on this icon, and position it in the place so that it matches the background image.

When you press the home button now, you will see the icon match perfectly with the background, creating the illusion of a blank space between two app icons. You can repeat these steps for multiple positions on the home screen, in order to create any kind of arrangement for your app icons. If you need to get rid of these blank icons, you simply have to tap and hold on any app icon, and tap the cross on the blank icon’s tile to remove it.

This is the layout I created. It’s not the best, but it’s something.

2. Create Custom App Icons:

Creating custom app icons on iOS is likewise conceivable utilizing iEmpty. In fact, these aren’t custom application icons; they are alternate routes to the applications you need a custom icon for. They utilize an indistinguishable trap from the blank icons, except in this case, you can choose the icon you want. However, for simplicity’s sake, I’ll call them custom app icons, only. So, to create custom app icons, follow the steps below:

• In Safari on your iPhone, go to the iEmpty website. Scroll down, and tap on “iCustom: Custom app icons”. On the page that opens, tap on “Start Now!“.

• Scroll down, and choose the application you want a custom icon for. I’m gonna try it out on Videos. Then, either upload a PNG, or JPG image to be used as icon, or add one from URL.

• Once done, scroll down, and tap on “Let’s Go“. The website will generate a shortcut link for you. Once it is done, tap on “Open Popup“.

• On the next page, tap on then “Share” icon in Safari, and tap on “Add to Home Screen“.

• Delete the question mark, and type the name you want the icon to have on the home screen. I’m going with “Videos“. Then, tap on “Add “.

You will now see an icon titled “Videos” on your home screen with the custom icon you chose. You can tap on this icon to launch the Videos app on your iPhone. You can create shortcut icons for example, these for a considerable measure of applications utilizing sites, for example, iEmpty.

If iEmpty is not working out all around ok for you, makeovr is another great site that you can use to modify the iPhone home screen. It utilizes the same methods as iEmpty to create blank icons for your home screen, and it works well enough. However, personally, I found iEmpty’s icons to align much better on my “Death Star” wallpaper.

Customize iPhone home screen with custom app icons:

You can utilize sites, for example, iEmpty, and Makeovr to make fun, and cool formats for your home screen. Yes, it’s a considerable measure of work, however in the event that you have something cool at the top of the priority list, it can turn out okay utilizing clear symbols, and custom application logos. Thus, simply ahead and make some cool custom home screen formats for your iPhone, and iPad, and impart them to us.
