Test Steps
  1. Make sure you can access the icon change options in Settings -> App Theme. It was determined during YiR. You might need to trigger YiR again if testing on a device you have reinstalled recently. You can force enable YiR in the developer settings.
  2. Change the icon to custom and back to default.
  3. Try different home screen tint customization options (long-press the device's home screen -> edit menu top left of screen, click customize, try different options for both icons)
  4. Test in iOS 18 device -> you'll see the old icon assets, no need to test customizations
