How to generate app icons for iOS
Apple needs your app icon in many sizes. Here's how to produce the whole set — plus an Xcode asset catalog — from one image.
Steps
- Export your icon artwork as a 1024×1024 PNG.
- Open the app icon generator and drop it in.
- It renders every required size for iPhone, iPad and the App Store.
- Download a ZIP with the icons and a ready-to-use Xcode AppIcon set.
