SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill eliminates the fragmented, error-prone process of creating, optimizing, and shipping Apple platform app launcher icons and in-app UI glyphs. It solves common pain points like missing required icon sizes, white-border halos that pass App Store validation but look broken on devices, poor small-size readability, and low App Store tap-through rates from unoptimized icon design.

Core Features & Use Cases

End-to-end app icon workflow: Covers product strategy, AI-assisted candidate generation, small-size readability testing, asset generation for all Apple platforms, and pre-submission validation.
Multiple asset format support: Generates modern iOS 26 Icon Composer .icon bundles (with light/dark/tinted/clear variants), classic AppIcon.appiconset, macOS .icns, and in-app SF Symbols / Iconify imagesets.
App Store conversion optimization: Includes A/B testing guidance, category visual language best practices, and icon audit rubrics to improve tap-through rates.
Use Case: An iOS developer building a fitness app can use this Skill to generate 3 distinct icon candidates, test their readability at Home Screen size, produce a Liquid Glass .icon bundle for iOS 26, validate it for the white-border bug, and run an App Store Connect A/B test to identify the highest-performing variant.

Quick Start

Use the app-icons skill to design a new launcher icon for your iOS meditation app, generate the required Icon Composer .icon bundle with light, dark, and tinted variants, validate it for common submission bugs, and set up an App Store Connect A/B test to optimize tap-through rate.

FAQPage Schema

How do I generate an iOS 26 Icon Composer .icon bundle with light, dark, and tinted variants?▼

Yes, the skill includes programmatic validation to check for common App Store submission bugs like missing required icon sizes and white-border halos. This prevents broken-looking assets from passing initial submission checks.

What's the best way to test app icon readability at small Home Screen sizes?▼

You can optimize App Store tap-through rates by applying category visual language best practices and running A/B tests. The skill provides icon audit rubrics and App Store Connect testing guidance to identify the highest-performing icon variant.

Does this workflow support generating macOS .icns files and classic AppIcon.appiconset assets?▼

For in-app UI glyphs, the skill supports generating SF Symbols asset-catalog imagesets and Iconify API glyphs. It includes bundled automation scripts to streamline the creation and integration of these UI assets.

How do I validate my app icon for the white-border halo bug before App Store submission?▼

To validate for the white-border halo bug, the skill runs programmatic checks on your generated app icon assets. This catches visual glitches that pass App Store validation but appear broken on actual Apple devices.
