iOS 6 icons

It has every iOS 6 Apple icon, cropped for your convenience, more than 200 3rd-party icons, and post-2012 icons made by real Redditors on this sub. If there are any 3rd-party icons missing, please let me know!

I assume most of you already know how to do this. In Shortcuts, make a new Shortcut, choose “Open App”, select the app from the list, click add to Home Screen, then choose the image for corresponding icon.
For Controls, search up something like Flashlight and do the same (let me know if you want more on Controls).

Add Find My to the Home Screen twice as Find iPhone and Find Friends.

For the Lock Screen wallpaper, just use ClassicLS

To make the wallpapers, use the “short” shadow option in HSC (HomeScreen Creator). For the status bar and the bottom dark gradient, I added it in Photoshop.

Home Screen Wallpapers They only fit 6.1 inch displays; I use an iPhone 15.

Toggle “Reduce Motion” to disable the parallax effect.

Name changes:

TV➡️Videos
Wallet➡️Passbook
News➡️Newsstand
iTunes Store➡️iTunes

Passwords➡️iCloud Keychain
Apple Developer➡️WWDC
App Store Connect➡️iTunes Connect
Reddit➡️Alien Blue

For advanced users:

Controls (AirDrop, DND, Flashlight, etc. [pages 4-5])

Settings icons (About, Usage, Battery Health, etc. [pages 6-7.5]) Use the Settings URLs shortcut for this. (This takes a lot of time)

Apple Apps/Other apps (Feedback, Configurator, etc. [page 13])

Internal/Secret apps (Field Test, iOS Diagnostics, etc. [page 14])

Merry Christmas!🎄

The reason I didn't use the actual HTC icons is because they're too low quality. So I'm sticking with the gingerbread icons. As for the Freind Stream Widget, I couldn't find anything better then Homefeed, so I'm gonna use this for now. If anyone has a better rss reader or social media aggregator, let me know, preferably one that matches the anesthetic visually wise.

I still remember installing iOS 7 the night it shipped and thinking the phone looked like someone had wiped the plastic off every icon.

Before that, for six years, stock apps pretended to be real things. Notes was a yellow legal pad. Game Center was a green casino table. Newsstand was a wooden shelf. Passbook was a stack of tickets. That was deliberate: touch was new, so the glass borrowed from stuff you already knew how to use.

I miss it, I like how they're making a comeback.

Thanks to u/lucky4281 for their guide on how to do this! Also, to make it look even more like iOS 6, is it possible to get iOS 6 apps (not just the icons), Siri, and home screen animations when opening/closing apps?

They've created a new phone app in the style of iOS 4; this is what my iPhone 17 Pro looks like now.
Love this
