iOS 15 allows you to create multiple copies of the same app on the home page. It means, you can create multiple icons of the same app as you want.

Get Started

In the below image, you can see 4 icons of the #Nykaa app. It seems like fun by Apple but really not. It is very useful in any case.

How to create multiple icons ?

As you know, the system has a spotlight search feature. You can add the duplicate icon from spotlight search very easily.

For example, you have 3 home pages. At the 1st page you already installed the #Nykaa app. Now move to any other home page except 1st one which has already #Nykaa app. Now open spotlight search and find #Nykaa app and then hold and drag and drop the app on the home page. The iOS System will add new app icons on that home page. Now you can move this new icon to any home page.

Is this a new copy or icon ?
