How to use App Icon Pack Generator

What the tool does, how to run it, and what to expect from the result.

How to generate an app icon pack

To generate an app icon pack, upload one square source image as a PNG, JPG, SVG, or WebP, set basic app-name and manifest fields, and export. The generator resizes your image into the core icon sizes and bundles everything into a single ZIP download.

Using a high-resolution square source gives the cleanest results across sizes, because each icon is scaled down from the same artwork. The included 1024 marketing icon covers store listing requirements alongside the app and launcher sizes.

  • Upload one square PNG, JPG, SVG, or WebP
  • Set the app name and manifest fields
  • Export the icon pack and manifest as a ZIP

What the core pack covers

The core pack covers the icon sizes most indie products need first: the main iOS app icons, the Android launcher icons, and the web/PWA assets, plus the 1024 marketing icon and a manifest. It stays focused on those essentials rather than every edge-case variant.

Because resizing and packaging happen locally in your browser, your source artwork is never sent to a server. That keeps unreleased branding private while you prepare a launch.

Tips

Getting a better result out of App Icon Pack Generator

Specific settings and thresholds, not general advice.

  • The ZIP contains 23 PNGs in four folders: ios/ (20, 29, 40, 58, 60, 76, 80, 87, 120, 152, 167, 180), android/ (48, 72, 96, 144, 192), web/ (16, 32, 180, 192, 512), and marketing/icon-1024x1024.png, plus web/favicon.ico and a manifest.webmanifest.
  • Set the background to a solid color, not Transparent, if the 1024 marketing icon is headed for App Store Connect. Apple rejects app icons that contain transparency, and every PNG here is exported from a canvas with an alpha channel.
  • There is no Android adaptive icon in the pack: no 432 pixel foreground and background layers, and no maskable PWA variant. Android will apply its own mask to your icon, so leave roughly 15 to 20 percent padding around the mark in the source or the launcher will crop into it.
  • The manifest points at /web/icon-192x192.png and /web/icon-512x512.png with start_url set to /. Those are guesses about your deployment. Fix the paths to match where you actually upload the files, or the icons will 404 on install.
  • The Short name field is auto-filled from your file name and truncated to 12 characters. Android home screens cut long labels at around 12 characters anyway, so it is worth setting deliberately rather than shipping a truncated file name.
Limits

What App Icon Pack Generator does not do

The honest boundary, so you do not lose time finding it yourself.

  • No Android adaptive icon layers and no maskable PWA icon.
  • No Xcode Contents.json or .appiconset, so you place the PNGs in the asset catalog yourself.
  • No macOS .icns, no watchOS sizes, and no splash screens.
  • No HTML snippet, and the manifest paths are defaults you have to correct.

FAQ

Common questions

Short answers for the questions people usually have before trying a utility like this.

Is the App Icon Pack Generator free?

Yes. The App Icon Pack Generator is free with no signup or watermark, and it runs in your browser with nothing to install.

Does this upload my source image to a server?

No. Resizing and packaging happen locally in your browser, so your source image never leaves your device and stays private.

Which platforms does the pack cover?

It exports core iOS, Android launcher, and web/PWA icon sizes, plus a 1024 marketing icon and a web manifest, all bundled in a single ZIP.

Does it include adaptive Android or maskable PWA variants?

No. This version focuses on the core pack of standard sizes most products need first rather than adaptive or maskable variants.

Can I set app name metadata for the manifest?

Yes. Basic app-name and manifest fields are part of the workflow, so the exported manifest reflects your app details.

Can I upload the 1024 icon straight to the App Store?

Only if you exported with a solid background. Every PNG here comes from an HTML canvas and therefore carries an alpha channel, and App Store Connect rejects app icons containing transparency. Pick White, Black, or a custom hex before you generate, and flatten the alpha channel if your validator still complains.

Does this include Android adaptive icons?

No. The pack ships the classic square launcher sizes from 48 to 192. Adaptive icons need separate foreground and background layers at 432 pixels with a safe zone, which is a different asset shape. Because Android masks whatever you give it, leave padding around your mark so the shape does not clip the artwork.

How do I use these in Xcode?

Drag the PNGs into the AppIcon set in your asset catalog and match each one to its slot. There is no Contents.json in the ZIP, so the mapping is manual. Note that recent Xcode versions accept a single 1024 icon and generate the rest, so the marketing icon may be the only file you actually need.

What is in the manifest?

Name, short name, start_url, display set to standalone, background and theme colors from the fields on the page, and the 192 and 512 icons. The icon paths assume the files live under /web/, so change them to match where you actually deploy the assets.

Is my icon uploaded anywhere?

No. All 23 sizes are rendered on canvases in your browser, the ICO and the manifest are built locally, and the ZIP is assembled in the tab. An unreleased product icon never leaves your machine.
