I frequently disable text labels in order to reclaim screen space.

Perhaps it takes a certain kind of person to decipher icons as easily as text. But of course, I don't know all of them already, and so frequently I just go on a journey of discovery by tapping random buttons to see what they do. I would say that's not an efficient way to learn a UI, but what else to do? Documentation sucks!

Lastly, the real curse of icons is forcing support people to attempt to describe, in our native tongue, the appearance of a thing, rather than its plain name. It was deceptively easy to guide a newbie by saying "now click open, then save, now go home" but nobody is going to know what the "hamburger" or "floppy disk" or "share" icons look like, so the verbal mode of communication has been hampered significantly.
