Ready-Made iOS App Icons for the App Store

What the App Store actually requires

The App Store icon is a 1024×1024 PNG with no alpha channel and no rounded corners of its own. Apple applies the mask — an icon that arrives with the corners already rounded gets dark wedges baked into the artwork, which is the single most common reason a submission comes back.

Every file in an IconSpot archive is flattened, opaque sRGB and full-square for exactly that reason. The rounded plate you see on the product page is presentation; the file you download is the raw square.

Installing it in Xcode

Open Assets.xcassets, select the AppIcon set and drop the 1024×1024 PNG onto the App Store slot. Modern Xcode generates the smaller sizes from that single asset, so there is nothing else to fill in. Build, then look at it on a device home screen before you submit — 60 points is the size that tells you the truth.

The smaller PNGs in the archive are there for the places Xcode will not generate for you: a marketing site, a press kit, a favicon, a desktop build.

What is not included

Layered Icon Composer sources, and separate dark or tinted variants, are not part of the archive — what you get is the flat artwork at every size. If your app needs the layered treatment, the 1024 is a solid base to build it from, but you will be doing that step yourself.

Your app is done. Don't ship it with a placeholder.

You could make one yourself. The annoying part — trying, discarding, and preparing the survivor for the stores — is already done.

Questions before you buy

Do I need to round the corners myself?

No — and you should not. iOS applies its own mask to a square icon. Rounding the corners in the file leaves dark triangles in the finished icon on device.

Does the file have transparency?

No. App Store Connect rejects an icon with an alpha channel, so every PNG in the archive is fully opaque on a square canvas.

What is in the download?

A ZIP with the 1024×1024 PNG, the 512×512 PNG, five smaller sizes down to 32 pixels, a README and the licence for your order. Every file is flattened, opaque sRGB, on a full square canvas.

Can I use it in a paid app?

Yes. $49 buys a worldwide, perpetual commercial licence: use the icon as the app icon of any product you build or own, free or paid, in your store listing and your advertising. No attribution, no recurring fee.
