Quick reference
Common app icon dimensions
Start with a clean square source, keep the important artwork inside the safe area, and let each platform apply its own mask and presentation treatment.
| Platform | Canvas | File guidance |
|---|---|---|
| iOS / App Store | 1024 × 1024 px | Square source artwork; Apple can generate icon variations from a single 1024 × 1024 image. |
| Google Play | 512 × 512 px | 32-bit PNG with alpha; maximum 1 MB for the store listing icon. |
Check the platform’s current documentation before publishing. Icon artwork also needs to follow each store’s design and metadata policies.

What is the iOS app icon size?
Apple’s current iOS workflow can generate icon variations from a single 1024 × 1024 pixel image in an asset catalog. Use a square source without rounded corners and let the platform apply its own masking.
What is the Google Play app icon size?
Google Play requires a 512 × 512 pixel app icon for a store listing. The file must be a 32-bit PNG with alpha and no larger than 1 MB.
Does the app icon size checker upload my image?
No. The checker reads the image dimensions locally in your browser. The selected file is not sent to WowShots by this tool.
