Veteran users are privy to the power of the Mac modifier keys. Those special keys on your Mac's keyboard, like Command (⌘), Option (⌥), Control (⌃), and others, are most commonly used in conjunction with regular keys as feature shortcuts.
Frequently-used macOS commands have their dedicated keyboard shortcuts, many of which are the same across apps like copy/paste and undo/redo. Others are app-specific.
Memorizing regularly used keystrokes boosts your productivity and multitasking prowess, but Apple doesn't provide an easy way to view all the keyboard shortcuts in any given app.
You can, of course, view and customize some of the system and app shortcuts in System Preferences > Keyboard > Shortcuts, but wouldn't it be nice if there were a better way?

These invisible icons will allow you to create empty spaces on your Home Screen to either let the wallpaper shine or arrange your app icons in a very specific way. For example, you can place all the empty icons on the top, which will push your meaningful app icons down, making them easier to reach when using your iPhone in one-handed mode.
This tutorial will show you how to create blank, transparent iPhone icons with no jailbreak required.
