The official MLB At Bat and NHL apps on iOS have introduced a new update today that allows users to change the app’s icon to their favorite team’s logo. The new feature comes as a part of a developer related change in iOS 10.3 allowing apps to request permission to change the app icons.

The MLB.com At Bat and NHL’s usage of the new iOS 10.3 feature is a welcome show of what’s possible with app icon changes. Being able to customize the app’s icon when desired can help create a more personalized feel to a user’s homescreen, especially when it comes to dedicated fans.

How to change MLB.com At Bat & NHL’s Home Screen Icon

  • Download the MLB.com At Bat update from the iOS App Store
  • Open the app and head to More → Settings → Set Home Screen Icon
  • Select your favorite team from the list
  • Tap ‘OK’ on prompt alerting you that you have changed the icon

The At Bat or NHL app update can be downloaded for free from the iOS App Store now.
