Halloween App Icons

If you’re like me, you can’t resist the temptation of giving your iPhone a fresh new look. 

It’s amazing how a simple change in app icons can transform your home screen into something entirely different and exciting.

This fall, I decided to take my app icon obsession to a whole new level and embrace the spooky season by creating Halloween app icons.

I’ve always been such a big fan of Halloween. The costumes, decorations, and pumpkin carving are all part of what makes it such a fun holiday.

However, if you’re feeling adventurous, consider creating your own Halloween background.

Simply grab your phone, head to the pumpkin patch, and start capturing images that align with the Halloween season. Then, apply a filter to match your chosen icons, and voila!

After the recent iOS 14 Apple update, our phone screens have never looked so personalized! However, choosing a color scheme, new app icons, and a background to unify it all sounds like a lot of work. That’s why we went ahead and did some of it for you...Halloween style! After all, it's spooky season so your phone screen should reflect that.

These iOS 14 home screen app icons are free to download and use. If you're not sure how to update your home screen with our icons, you can jump to our tutorial  or watch a video . But if you're just here for the Halloween home screen content, let’s dive in!

How to Customize Your iOS 14 Home Screen

If you need help adding these custom app icons to your home screen, we'll show you how!

• To begin, you should check that your iPhone is updated to iOS 14. Most people have their phone set to update automatically, but for those who don’t, this step is for you! Go to Settings > General > Software Update , and from there it’ll show you if you’re up to date.
• Once your phone is updated to iOS14, download our app icon images (above) so they're saved in your camera roll.
•  Open the Shortcuts app . Not sure where that is? Swipe down on your phone for the search option and type in “shortcuts”. The app will be a dark blue color with two rounded squares blending into each other. Alternatively, you can go to  Settings  > Shortcuts . It'll be mixed in with apps like Messages, Safari, and Maps.
• In Shortcuts, tap the small blue + button in the top right corner. 
• Tap  + Add Action .
• Type “open app” into the search bar and select that option.
• Tap on Choose .
• This will open a menu of all your phone apps. Select or search for the app you’d like to update. Once you’ve found the app, tap it and you'll be back at the previous screen. It should now say "Open" and then show your selected app.
• Tap the three dots in the top right corner. 
• Tap  Add to Homescreen .
• Rename your app, or keep it the same as the original.
• To select a new app icon, tap the image icon with the blue border around it. That will bring you to your camera roll, where you can select our new app icon image.
• Tap  Add .
• The shortcut will then appear on your home screen and you can move it to its desired location.

iOS 14 App Icon Video Tutorial

For the visual learners out there, here is a video from Kayla's World. The tutorial begins at 0:57.

How to Get Rid of Duplicate Apps

Once you’ve added your new shortcut, you will have two of the same app on your home screen: the shortcut with our Halloween app icon and the original app. Here’s how to avoid having duplicates on your home screen.

• Long press (press and hold) on an app until all your icons start doing their wiggle dance and you can move them around.
• Select your original app and move it to the right until it brings you to your App Library , which is also a new feature for iOS 14. Alternatively, you can long press on the app and when the drop-down menu appears, select move to App Library .
• Select which category you want that app to live in. There are already categories like Entertainment, Social, Utilities, etc. (Don’t worry, you can always move it around and get it back. You’re not deleting it, just hiding it!)

Opening Apps With New Icons

It’s also important to note that by using the Shortcuts app, you will be brought to the shortcut home page for a split second before your phone opens the actual app you want. No, your phone isn’t glitching, it’s merely a feature Apple hasn’t fixed yet and is a small price to pay for a wonderfully spooky home screen.

We hope you enjoyed these custom Halloween app icons for iOS 14. Please let us know if you're using them in the comments below! And now that you've decorated your iPhone, be sure to decorate your home with our Halloween decor !

How to Find Missing Safari Icon on iPhone or iPad

By: Waseem Patwegar | Filed Under: iOS

When the Safari Icon goes missing from the Home screen of iPhone, most users start thinking about the possibility of Safari App being accidentally deleted by them or by someone with access to their device.

However, this is never the case as Apple prevents users from deleting native apps and Safari happens to be one of the most essential native Apps that cannot be deleted from an Apple device.

In most cases, the problem of missing Safari Icon ends up being due to the Safari App being accidentally moved to another Home Screen or becoming hidden in a Folder on the App Library screen.

A less common reason for Safari Icon missing or disappearing from the Home screen on iPhone is due to the Safari App being restricted by Screen Time Settings .

What to Do If Safari Icon is Missing on iPhone?

It can be quite frustrating to find Safari Icon missing on iPhone. Fortunately, in most cases, you should be able to fix this problem using the following steps.

1. Check All Home Screens & Folders

As mentioned above, the most common reason for Safari Icon missing on iPhone is due to the Safari App being accidentally moved to another Home Screen or a Folder.

Hence, the first step would be to carefully go through all the Home screens on your iPhone and look for the Safari App.

Also, go through all Folders and make sure that Safari Icon is not hiding in a Folder on your device.

2. Search For Safari Browser On iPhone

Follow the steps below to make your iPhone look for the missing Safari app.

1. Bring up the Search bar on the Home screen of your iPhone ( Swipe down or Swipe left , depending on the model of your iPhone).

2.  Type Safari in the Search bar and this should bring up Safari App in the search results.

3. Tap & Hold on the Safari Icon , drag it upwards slightly and release the finger to place Safari Icon back on the Home Screen of your iPhone.

Note: Even if the Safari App is hidden in a Folder, you will see the name of the Folder in which the Safari App Icon is hidden on your device.

3. Look For Safari in App Library

If you had accidentally removed Safari from the Home screen, it should be available in the App Library on your iPhone.

1. Swipe Left on the Home screen of your iPhone, until you reach the App Library screen.

2. On App Library screen, type Safari in the Search bar and you should find Safari appearing in the Search results.

3. Once Safari appears in the search results, tap and hold on Safari Icon and select Add to Home Screen option.

This should immediately bring the Safari Icon back on the Home Screen of your device.

4. Unhide Home Screen

Another possibility is that you may have accidentally moved Safari to another Home screen and also hidden that Home Screen.

1. Tap & Hold on the Dots located on the Home Screen of your iPhone.

2. Look for Safari Icon in the Thumbnails and tap below the Thumbnail that contains the Safari Icon (if it does not have the check mark).

3. This will unhide the Screen containing Safari Icon and you will find Safari back on the Home screen of your iPhone.

5. Reset Home Screen

An easy way to get native Apps like Safari back to their default position on the Home screen of your iPhone is to Reset the Home Screen.

1. Go to Settings > General > Transfer or Reset iPhone > Reset .

2. On the Reset Screen, select Reset Home Screen Layout option.

As mentioned above, resetting the Home Screen should bring back the Safari Icon to its usual position on the Home screen of your iPhone or iPad.

6. Disable Restrictions on Safari App

You may have accidentally or intentionally placed restrictions on Safari App, in order to prevent the possibility of your children accessing the internet and using up all your data.

1. Open Settings > Go to Screen Time > Content & Privacy Restrictions and tap on Allowed Apps .

2. On Allowed Apps screen, move the toggle next to Safari to  ON  position.

Note: If you are using Screen Time Passcode , you will be prompted to enter Screen Time Passcode.

Safari is a browser app that comes preloaded on all iPhones and iPads. However, it’s possible to accidentally delete or hide the Safari app icon from your Home Screen. If the Safari icon has gone missing from your Home Screen, don’t worry. In this article, we’ll talk you through the best ways to find the Safari app on your device and put it back .

Adding Safari from the App Library

• As soon as you start typing, search results should begin to pop up on the screen.
• You can also browse the categories in the library until you find Safari. For instance, Safari may be located in the Utilities category.

Finding Safari in Spotlight Search

Unlocking Safari in Parental Controls

• At this point, if you have restrictions enabled, you’ll be prompted to enter your Screen Time passcode.
• If you want to quickly turn off all content restrictions , you can toggle off Content & Privacy Restrictions at the top of the screen.

Showing Hidden Home Screen Pages

• You can also touch and hold the row of dots at the bottom of your screen to make the icons start wiggling.

Doing a Home Screen Reset

Adding Safari Bookmarks to your Home Screen

• In the Add to Home Screen window, you can also customize the name of the bookmark if you like.

Expert Q&A

• If you want to add the Safari app icon to the dock on your iPhone, tap and hold the app icon on your Home Screen until it starts to wiggle. Then, drag it down to the dock. If you already have 4 apps in your dock, you’ll need to remove one to make room. You can use the same process on the iPad, but the iPad dock can hold many more apps than the iPhone dock.

To much scams…please READ!

So whenever I use this app/ Safari it get these trackers and scammers to get my location and this is making me nervous. I installed ad blocker I think it’s called and I blocked some trackers which made me feel better. Every time you search something you usually get a scam or tracker. I do not like when people track me down. I rarely use this app because of the scams and risks. I think it is an OK app in general because it’s the people making these small BAD websites. The reason I gave it 4 stars is because it could use work but it is pretty much like google. I use google way more because I feel like it is much safer than safari. I could be wrong… Safari could use some work with all these BAD websites. Can you block these bad websites? I would love to block these websites cause they are scary. Also watch out for nine anime/ 9anime websites… I searched up 9anime on safari and clicked a link. It looked safe but then these inappropriate pop ups kept coming. I immediately got off. I checked my ‘ How much trackers we have prevented’ or whatever it’s called it said that it had prevented 14 trackers from getting my IP address. This was good and bad news. I’m glad that safari and google can prevent these trackers but it is bad because this is dangerous. BE CAREFUL ON SAFARI!!!

Your Underrated Prince, Safari

In my humble opinion, Safari is the underrated king among multiple web browsers on the market. I was a PC devotee from ‘95 to ‘16, since then, it’s been all Tim Cook 🍎 all the time. My only regret is not purchasing a smartphone back in ‘07 from Steve Jobs. Presently, I own an iPhone 6s Plus in rose gold (2016), iPad Mini (2016), iPad Pro (2019) & MacBook (2018) in rose gold with matching Beats By Dre headphones. All four are set up with Safari, not Chrome, TOR, Brave, Edge, or DDGo. I love the ability to quickly save favorites, add to reading list & share content to other platforms. My favorites are alphabetized for quick reference & the reading list keeps all articles & pages in chronological order for quick recall. Also, I learned Safari quickly because it’s extremely user friendly. The browser helped my navigation of Apple when switching from PC. I’ll admit, learning MacBook isn’t easy, but, Safari keeps things familiar for me on the desktop. When lost, just go back to Safari & start over. It’s surprising no one in tech media mentions Safari more often as a go to source for navigating the internet. Chrome is the reigning king of, Land Of Browsers, without an heir apparent. I nominate Safari as the prince with future king potential. Citizens of Land Of Browsers don’t like their chrome-plated dirty laundry aired, sold or tracked.

Google sandbox

My wife went into google sandbox and put all my information on there under business add settings. I need all deleted and if there’s any copies sent to my email if not delete and I’m pressing charges and I’ll contact Google myself also she has taken my Apple IDs her and her new bow means boyfriend after 20 years of marriage with me. I gave her my whole life and she has done nothing but take from me. I’m heartbroken but mainly I suffer from PTSD social anxiety, agoraphobia shell shop and now I have a vascular disease in my left leg, wonder where that came from if you would please erase from my iPhone SE that was just bought. I have also another one sitting here that was just bought last year not even a year ago that is also tore up with my Apple ID locked reeving, but she retrieved one while ago. It was two hours after it said it was available. She uses Bluetooth devices to get past off of messenger to get into my phone, please fix everything and press charges with anything. My name has on it because I didn’t do it. I have two different iPhone sitting here that I can give you the serial numbers to that. I can’t even put on my phone on my app because it has been taken, plus the IMEI.

How to Add Safari to iPhone Home Screen: A Step-by-Step Guide

Adding Safari to your iPhone home screen is a breeze and can be done in just a few taps. By doing so, you’ll have quick access to your favorite web browser right from your main screen, saving you time and making your browsing experience more efficient.

Step by Step Tutorial: Adding Safari to iPhone Home Screen

Before we dive into the steps, let’s clarify what we’re aiming to achieve here. We’re going to create a shortcut on your iPhone’s home screen that will open Safari directly, so you can get to your favorite sites faster than ever. Ready? Let’s go!

Step 1: Open Safari

Open the Safari app on your iPhone.

When you open Safari, make sure you’re on the page you want to create a shortcut for. This can be your homepage or any other webpage you frequently visit.

Step 2: Tap the Share Icon

• Tap the share icon at the bottom of the screen.

The share icon looks like a square with an arrow pointing upwards. It’s your gateway to many useful actions, including the one we need right now.

Step 3: Select ‘Add to Home Screen’

Scroll through the options and select ‘Add to Home Screen.’

You might need to swipe left on the bottom row of icons to find this option. It’s represented by a plus sign and the text ‘Add to Home Screen.’

Step 4: Name the Shortcut

• Name the shortcut and tap ‘Add.’

You’ll be prompted to name the shortcut before adding it. Choose a name that will help you remember what the shortcut is for. Keep it short and sweet!

Step 5: Rearrange the Shortcut

Hold and drag the Safari icon to your preferred spot on the home screen.

Like any app, you can move the Safari shortcut around. Press and hold the icon until it wiggles, then drag it to where you want it.

Once you’ve followed these steps, you’ll see the Safari icon appear on your home screen, just like any other app. Tap it, and voilà! You’ll be taken directly to the page you created the shortcut for. Easy, right?

Tips for Adding Safari to iPhone Home Screen

• Keep your shortcuts organized by grouping them in folders. This way, your home screen stays tidy.
• If you have multiple pages you access regularly, consider creating shortcuts for each to save even more time.
• You can delete a shortcut at any time by holding down the icon and selecting ‘Delete Bookmark.’
• Customize your shortcut’s name for easy identification. For instance, “News” could be for your favorite news website.
• Remember that these shortcuts will only open in Safari, so if you use another browser, this won’t redirect there.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do i remove a safari shortcut from my home screen.

To remove a Safari shortcut, simply press and hold the icon until it starts shaking, then tap the ‘X’ that appears.

Can I add a Safari shortcut to someone else’s website?

Absolutely! You can create a Safari shortcut for any website, as long as you can open it in Safari.

Will the Safari shortcut show the website’s favicon?

Yes, it usually shows the favicon, which is the small icon you see in browser tabs next to the page title.

What if I don’t see the ‘Add to Home Screen’ option?

Make sure you’re scrolling through all the options in the share menu. Sometimes it’s hidden on the second page of actions.

Can I add Safari shortcuts to my iPad home screen too?

Yes, the process is the same for adding Safari shortcuts to an iPad home screen.

• Open Safari on your iPhone.
• Select ‘Add to Home Screen’ from the share menu.
• Rearrange the Safari icon on your home screen as desired.

There you have it, folks – adding Safari to your iPhone home screen is as simple as pie! Not only does it make accessing your most-visited sites a snap, but it also helps in keeping your digital life organized and efficient. With your new Safari shortcuts, you’re just one tap away from the content you love, without the hassle of navigating through menus and apps.

Now that you’re a pro at adding shortcuts, why stop at Safari? You can apply this nifty trick to other frequently used apps and tools on your iPhone. Get creative, personalize your home screen, and enhance your productivity. And if you ever feel like changing things up, remember that it’s just as easy to remove or edit your shortcuts.

Happy browsing, and here’s to a more convenient and streamlined iPhone experience!
