The world of the iOS 14 icon pack really has exploded of late and Tobias Whetton thought that now would be the perfect time to try something new – ditch those squircles we’ve all been looking at for the last 13 years.

The result is a new icon pack that offers icons that look very different from what we’re used to seeing on iPhones. And, in this case at least, that’s a very good thing indeed.

I’ve been designing this set of iOS 14 icons during my spare time. It started out as a passionate project, where I challenged myself to see how far I could stretch the customisation of iOS. Squircles have been the default iOS shape for over 13 years and I wanted to change that. Using a neat trick, matching the iOS wallpaper with the outer background of the app icon, I was able to modify the default icon shape into these playful rectangles.

After initially planning on only making a few icons, Whetton ended up creating more than 120 of them and offering them up on Gumroad and ProductHunt. You can buy your own set of icons – complete with the matching wallpaper – for just $24. You’ll get lifetime updates with new icons added to the collection weekly, too.

Sounds good to me! Here are all the details on how to install these icons, too.
