Installing a small ‘point’ update, like iOS 27. 2, is a pretty routine operation these days. Just accept the update when your iPhone tells you it’s here, your iPhone restarts after it’s been downloaded, and you’re good to go. The latest iOS27. 2 restarted as normal for me, but I wasn’t expecting it to have changed my Apple Music icon. When I tried to listen to some music I initially thought my Apple Music app had vanished. Instead, what has happened is that Apple has, rather frustratingly, decided to change the icon to a white one instead of the familiar red one that I’m used to seeing. It took me a few seconds, but I finally found it on my Home Screen. And to be honest, I’m not a fan of the new white icon. The red one was iconic (pun intended), and still represents Apple Music, to me. Frankly, this new white icon is terrible. It may sit better with the other official Apple apps on my iPhone, like Calendar and Clock, which are also white, but I hate it. That’s when I decided to change it back. How to change Apple Music back to a red icon

(Image credit: Apple) Apple’s Shortcuts app is the key to this, but the first thing you’ll need is an image of the old red icon to save to your Photos app on your phone. You can search for it online, or do what I did and ask ChatGPT to show it to you…
