What is inside the iOS icon ZIP?

The Xcode asset catalog uses a 1024 × 1024px universal icon. Modern Xcode can derive smaller iPhone and iPad variants from that image.

1024px App Store image

A square PNG for the App Store and the universal Xcode icon slot. Leave corners unrounded; the system applies its mask.

AppIcon.appiconset

An asset folder containing the 1024px PNG and Contents.json. Copy it into Assets.xcassets in Xcode.

Additional PNG sizes

Separate PNG files are provided for older workflows. They are outside the Xcode asset folder to avoid duplicate icon slots.

This export creates the default appearance. It does not generate separate dark or tinted icon variants.

How to Generate iOS App Icons

Step 1: Upload Your Master Icon

Upload a 1024x1024 pixel square image. Do not add rounded corners; Apple applies the mask automatically.

Step 2: Verify Preview

Check the iPhone Home Screen preview. Confirm that your symbol remains legible at small sizes.

Step 3: Download & Integrate

Download the ZIP file, extract it, and replace the AppIcon.appiconset folder in your Xcode project's Assets.xcassets directory.

iOS App Icon FAQs

What sizes do I need for iOS apps?

Modern Xcode can generate smaller iPhone and iPad variants from a 1024x1024px universal image. The ZIP includes that Xcode asset catalog plus separate PNG sizes for older workflows.

Should I round the corners of my icon?

No. Upload a square image. iOS applies the superellipse mask automatically. If you upload an image with pre-rounded corners, you may see black artifacts in the corners.

Generate App Store icons for your iOS app

A square source for App Store and Xcode

Use a clear square master, normally 1024 pixels, without baked-in rounded corners. The system controls the icon mask. Inspect the exported AppIcon.appiconset and Contents.json, and check the source against the requirements for your Xcode version.

iOS icon builder or Icon Composer?

Maker exports PNG resources from a flattened source. Icon Composer handles native layers, materials and appearances. Choose the workflow required by your project; retain compatible asset catalogs until a replacement has been verified in Xcode.

Design the source, then export platform files

Import AppIcon.appiconset with Contents.json into Xcode. Inspect the target’s icon appearances; this export does not create dark, tinted or layered artwork.

AI creation uses credits. Review the displayed cost before generating; resizing and platform export are free.
