How do I fix custom icons on my iPhone after iOS 26 update?

Just updated to the new ios on my iphone and it wrecked my custom icons and i don’t know why!!! 


As you can see in the picture only some of my apps have a weird gradient and blur on them:

Settings, phone, clock, calendar, authenticator, messages, brave, and camera are all affected but not the rest of my apps.


All of them looked normal before i upgraded my ios and all of them are the exact same file type made in the exact same way. In fact they all are a single photoshop file just with different groups turned on and saved as.


I have tried turning on and off the customize clear default etc, i went into the settings and turned on and off color filters, reduce transparency, and even restarting my phone.


I can not figure this out.
