NSAppIconActionTintColorName

Discussion

By default, the system uses predefined colors for text and symbols in the App Shortcuts platter — a view that represents a single group of App Shortcuts. To override that behavior and change the color of those items, add a custom color to your app’s asset catalog and specify the color’s name as the value for this key.

<dict>
     <key>CFBundlePrimaryIcon</key>
     <dict>
         <key>NSAppIconActionTintColorName</key>
         <string>CustomTintColor</string>
    </dict>
</dict>

If your app provides multiple app icons, you can specify a different tint color to match each alternative.

<dict>
     <key>CFBundlePrimaryIcon</key>
     <dict>
         <key>NSAppIconActionTintColorName</key>
         <string>CustomTintColor</string>
    </dict>
    <key>CFBundleAlternateIcons</key>
     <dict>
         <key>MyAlternateIcon</key>
         <dict>
            <key>NSAppIconActionTintColorName</key>
            <string>AlternateCustomTintColor</string>
         </dict>
    </dict>
</dict>
