I’m sure MANY people liked the “camera-looking” icon!

Please give use the option of using that one!

I'm sure you'll manage to adjust. Apple owns iOS, not us. They can change anything in iOS they want. This new icon isn't really all that new. Several years ago, they use an icon much like the new one. And somehow we all managed to go on with our lives.

This is a user to user only forum. We are not Apple and we can't give you the old icon back. You can, however, provide feedback to Apple here --> Feedback - iPhone - Apple

You aren't writing anyone at Apple. This is a user to user only forum. As users only, we have no control over how any of the icons look.

It's only a one page thread. Had you read past the first post, you'd know this and you'd also see how to share your feedback with Apple directly. Use the link already provided.
