The size of a single app icon can vary depending on the context in which it is used. At WWDC 2024, it was mentioned that app icons and widgets can now appear in light, dark, or with a tint, providing a consistent visual experience across the home screen. This means that while the size of the icon itself might not change, its appearance can be customized to fit different themes and modes on iOS 18.
For more detailed information on how app icons are handled in iOS 18, you can refer to the Platforms State of the Union session.
