App icon sizes — FAQ
What size is an iOS app icon?
The master iOS app icon is 1024×1024 px (no transparency). Since Xcode 14 you only need that one file — Xcode generates the Home Screen (120/180 px), Spotlight, Settings and Notification sizes automatically.
What size is an Android app icon?
Use an adaptive icon: two 108×108 dp layers (foreground + background) with the key content inside a centered 72 dp safe zone, exported from mdpi (108 px) up to xxxhdpi (432 px). The Google Play listing additionally needs a 512×512 PNG.
Do I really need every icon size?
No. For iOS, a single 1024×1024 master is enough — Xcode derives the rest. For Android, the two adaptive layers cover all densities. The long tables are only needed for manual asset catalogs or legacy support.
What format should an app icon be?
PNG is standard for raster icons. The App Store icon must be a flat PNG with no alpha channel; Android Play Store accepts a 32-bit PNG with alpha. SVG is useful as an editable source but stores convert it to PNG on submission.
