Both the MLB.com At Bat and NHL iOS apps are **w taking advantage of the new custom icon feature following updates released this after**on.
In the MLB.com At Bat app, users can customize the Home screen icon of the app with MLB club-branded app icons representing their favorite team. Similarly, in the NHL app, app icons can also be customized with team logos instead of the standard NHL app icon.
