After dropping part one, I just had to share part two of my custom 'ATE' icon collection. This time, I’ve really leaned into that intense, powerful vibe of the 'ATE' era, perfect for anyone who loves a dark and dramatic aesthetic for their phone.
I've been playing around with these custom icons, widgets, and wallpapers, and seriously, my phone has never looked cooler. You know that feeling when you unlock your phone and it just screams 'you'? That’s what I’m getting now. The 'ATE icons' in this set are so meticulously designed, featuring our boys in those sharp black suits against dark backgrounds, often with those striking red smoke and lighting effects that just make everything pop. It’s a whole mood!
For instance, I found these incredible shots of Hyunjin that perfectly capture his charisma, and I’ve turned them into both small and medium widgets. Imagine unlocking your phone to see Hyunjin amidst that dramatic red lighting – pure perfection! And for the lockscreen, I went with an artistic, dark-toned image of hands, which adds a mysterious and edgy touch that really resonates with the 'black light burns cruel melody' kind of vibe. It’s not just about the idols; it’s about creating an entire atmospheric feel on your device.
Then there’s the homescreen background. I chose a dark, textured image with blurred shapes and what look like water droplets or even subtle roses. It’s dark, but still intricate and beautiful, complementing the icons and widgets without being overwhelming. It ties the whole aesthetic together, giving my phone a cohesive, high-fashion, K-pop-inspired look that truly stands out.
If you're wondering how to get this look, it's actually pretty fun and straightforward! For the custom app icons, I use the Shortcuts app – it allows you to replace default app icons with custom images. For widgets, apps like Widgetsmith or Photo Widget are your best friends. You just pick your favorite Hyunjin image or group shot, choose your widget size, and boom, instant K-pop flair! And setting the lockscreen and homescreen wallpapers is as simple as going into your phone settings. It's a small change that makes a huge impact on how your phone feels and expresses your style.
I absolutely adore how these 'ATE' era visuals, especially those featuring Hyunjin, transform my everyday tech into a true fan statement. It’s more than just a phone; it’s a canvas for my love for Stray Kids and their amazing concepts. If you’re a STAY looking to level up your iPhone layout with a powerful, dark aesthetic, definitely dive into these. You won't regret it!
