With iOS 14.3: changing app icons is more effective

For several days, iOS 14.3 has been available in beta test version. This new iteration of iOS 14 bringsseveral changes that we have listed here. Among these, there is for example support for the ProRAW photo format, but also support for DualSense and Amazon Luna game controllers, among others.

A new feature in iOS 14.3 that is missing from this list has just been detected. It concerns the Shortcuts app. In short, under iOS 14.3, when the user wants to launch a shortcut from the home screen and this shortcut must open an app, the automation no longer displays the app on the screen Shortcuts .

Apple cut this step. This means that changing app icons is more natural now, as Frederico Viticci showed:

Fantastic change in iOS 14.3 beta 2 – shortcuts added to the Home Screen now use compact UI and don't launch the Shortcuts app anymore.

Which means custom icons like our own MacStories Shortcuts Icons will now run shortcuts in-place, just like widgets ?https://t.co/9J47uU6ZlN pic.twitter.com/aHAS8iD0BW
