Branding

AI App Icon Generator

An app icon is the smallest, most competitive piece of branding you will ever design. It sits on a home screen next to fifty others at roughly 60 points, gets rounded off at the corners, and has to be identifiable in peripheral vision. Every successful icon is a single shape, one or two colors, and generous padding.

The failure mode is detail. Anything with a scene, a gradient mesh, or more than two ideas turns into a coloured blur at real size. Prompt for one glyph, centered, on a solid or simple gradient ground, and keep the subject well inside the frame so the corner rounding does not clip it.

Come ottenere risultati migliori

  • One shape only. If you can describe the icon in more than four words it is already too complicated.
  • Ask for "generous padding" so iOS and Android corner masking does not clip the glyph.
  • Specify a solid background color rather than a scene; a photographic backdrop destroys legibility at 60 points.
  • Preview it small and on both a light and a dark wallpaper before you settle on it.

Ideale per

  • iOS and Android app icons
  • Web app favicons
  • Browser extension icons
  • Product and feature glyphs

Modello consigliato

SDXL

SDXL keeps a single centered shape clean and symmetrical, which is what an icon needs more than anything else.

Frequently asked questions

What sizes do I need for an app icon?
iOS wants a 1024x1024 master and generates the rest. Android wants a 512x512 Play Store icon plus adaptive foreground and background layers. Generate square at maximum resolution and export the sizes from there.
Should I add rounded corners?
No. Both platforms apply their own corner masking. Submit a full square and keep the important shape away from the corners so nothing gets cut.
Can I get a transparent background?
App store icons must be fully opaque, so a solid background is what you want anyway. If you need transparency for a different use, the Sticker Maker model on Studio plans outputs transparent backgrounds.
