App Icon Generator 1.7.0 for Mac
Mac Developer ToolsApp Icon Generator, by developer Thomas Coomer, is a small App Store utility that removes one of the fiddliest jobs in app development: resizing a single icon into the long list of sizes Apple requires. Feed it one source image, choose the platforms you are shipping for, and it exports correctly sized, correctly named PNG files for iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, iMessage apps and Mac in seconds.
Version 1.7, the current App Store release, can also export a complete App Icon Set that you drag straight into your Xcode asset catalog, with every image already assigned to the right slot. The developer states that no data is collected by the app, and the tool itself was used to generate its own icons. It is a paid app — listed at £2.99 in the UK store, with regional pricing elsewhere — not a free download, and on Mac it requires macOS 14.0 or later.
