iOS Icon Size Reference
iOS App Icon Size Requirements
Apple requires app icons at multiple resolutions because iPhones and iPads have different screen densities, and your icon appears in different contexts — the home screen, Spotlight search, Settings, notifications, and the App Store. Since Xcode 14, you can supply a single 1024×1024 PNG and Xcode will generate all other sizes automatically. However, many teams still provide all sizes manually for full control over how the icon looks when downscaled, or when supporting iOS 15 and earlier.
iPhone Icon Sizes
iPhones use @2× (Retina) and @3× (Super Retina) displays. The "pt" (point) size is the logical size; the pixel size is what you need to deliver:
- Notification (20pt): 40×40px (@2×), 60×60px (@3×) — shown in the Notification Center and Lock Screen alongside notification text.
- Settings (29pt): 58×58px (@2×), 87×87px (@3×) — shown in the Settings app next to your app's settings entry.
- Spotlight (40pt): 80×80px (@2×), 120×120px (@3×) — shown when a user searches for your app in Spotlight.
- Home screen (60pt): 120×120px (@2×), 180×180px (@3×) — the primary icon users see and tap on the home screen.
iPad Icon Sizes
- Notification (20pt): 20×20px (@1×), 40×40px (@2×)
- Settings (29pt): 29×29px (@1×), 58×58px (@2×)
- Spotlight (40pt): 40×40px (@1×), 80×80px (@2×)
- Home screen (76pt): 76×76px (@1×), 152×152px (@2×)
- iPad Pro home screen (83.5pt): 167×167px (@2×) — used on 12.9" iPad Pro models
App Store Icon (1024×1024)
The 1024×1024 icon is used on the App Store listing page and in the iOS App Store app. Important: Apple rejects App Store icons that contain an alpha (transparency) channel. Your 1024px icon must have a solid background. All other sizes can use transparency.
Xcode Contents.json
The downloaded ZIP includes an AppIcon.appiconset/Contents.json file that maps each image file to its role in Xcode. To use it: unzip, then drag the entire AppIcon.appiconset folder into your Xcode project's Assets.xcassets catalog. Xcode will automatically recognize all icon sizes.
