Home Screen App Size-ing And Name Removal Concept

I would like to suggest adding a third Home Screen app icon size option that separates icon size from the option to remove app names.

After using the current Home Screen customization options, I noticed that removing app names creates a much cleaner and more minimal look, but it also automatically increases the size of the app icons. While some users may prefer the larger icons, I personally prefer the regular icon size because it feels more balanced and organized.

I discussed this idea with my friends and family, and we all agreed that we like the clean look of having no app names while still wanting to keep the original regular app icon size and compensating for the space of the name's of these apps being gone.

My suggestion is to add a third option:

  • Regular icons with app names (current default)

  • Regular icons without app names (new option)

  • Large icons without app names (current option)

This would allow users to create a cleaner, more customizable Home Screen without forcing the app icons to become larger when removing app names.

To help visualize this idea, I have also created some design mockups of what this option could look like. I hope these concepts help demonstrate how this feature could fit naturally into the existing Home Screen customization options.

Adding this option would give users more control over their Home Screen design while maintaining the simplicity and attention to detail that Apple is known for. A small change like this could make the experience feel more personalized for many users.
