Sizes included and where they are used

ios-1024.png is the App Store icon. ios-180.png is the iPhone home screen icon at 3x, ios-167.png is the iPad Pro icon and ios-120.png is used on 2x iPhones and for Spotlight. android-512.png is the size Google Play asks for on the store listing, and android-192.png matches the largest launcher density.

Recent versions of Xcode can build every iOS size from a single 1024 pixel icon, so for a new project the 1024 file may be all you need. Older projects and some build tools still expect the individual sizes.

Why the iOS icons are square and opaque

iOS applies its own rounded mask to app icons, and the App Store does not accept icons with transparency. So the ios files ignore the corner radius setting and are flattened onto your chosen background, or white if you picked none. Draw your artwork as a full square and let the system round it.

The Android files use the corner radius and background exactly as set. Google Play also rounds listing icons itself, so if you plan to upload android-512.png there, a radius of 0 avoids rounding twice.

Getting a clean result

Start from a square image of 1024 pixels or more; SVG artwork is rendered at 1024 first. Keep the important shape near the center and leave breathing room with the padding slider, which starts at 12%. Avoid small text, which disappears at 120 pixels, and thin lines that blur when scaled down. A bold silhouette on a contrasting background reads well on both light and dark home screens. Check the size grid on the page, where every icon is previewed with your settings, before downloading the zip.

App Icon Generator FAQ

Does it create Android adaptive icons?

No. Adaptive icons need separate foreground and background layers, which you set up in your Android project. This tool produces standard square PNGs.

Why does my iOS icon have a white background?

App Store icons can't contain transparency, so transparent areas are filled with your chosen background or white.

Do I need every size?

With a current Xcode project, the 1024 icon is often enough. The smaller iOS sizes are there for older projects and tools that still list them separately.

What corner radius should I choose?

It only affects the Android files. Use 0 for the Google Play listing icon, since Play applies its own rounding.

What file types can I upload?

JPG, PNG, WebP, SVG and other common formats up to 25 MB. A transparent PNG or an SVG gives the most control over the background.

Are my images safe?

Your file is sent over HTTPS, processed in memory and returned straight away. It is never stored, never shared and never used for anything else.

Is it free?

Yes. No account, no watermark and no limit on how many images you process. Files can be up to 25 MB.
