Photoshop script to generate all iOS and macOS app icon PNGs

Make one 1024x1024 App Icon, let this script automate the rest.

This script will create all of your app icon images from a single 1024x1024 "iTunesArtwork" PNG. It saves icons in PNG-24 using Save For Web and removes metadata. The generated PNGs are named with the following scheme: Icon-<size><density>.png, for example [email protected].

💡 Note:

These instructions (and install script) are for Photoshop CC 2014.

For a different version, simply edit the script.

Installation

$ git clone https://github.com/jessesquires/app-icons-script.git
