The iPhone operating system has been growing exponentially, as in just a few months we have received many updates that are gradually incorporating functions that were previously unimaginable, but are now possible thanks to new accessories added to the phones. And with its imminent arrival iOS 18There has been talk of a new addition to the home screen, which, if true, could mean an evolution to something really important in Apple cell phones.
These are nothing more or less than changes to the home screen, first with the classic application grid that hasn’t changed much to date and it’s noted that it won’t be mandatory anymore, so it can now be left blank if the user wants it for those familiar with it. appleIt is well known that you cannot leave empty spaces because it must be occupied by some application or a set of them in one of these boxes, but now there will be no limitation.
The second mentioned addition is the possibility to color the application icons, which will make it easier for the user to distinguish certain types of applications just by looking at the silhouette, so it can go from blue to social, red for games and green. Tools like cameras and calculators, for example. This will help the user to be more organized with the content they download for their cell phone

Author’s Note: The truth is that I don’t care a bit about the organization of icons, since searching for specific applications is not an impossible task. Let’s hope that there are really new things when version 20 appears in the following years.
