App Icon Generator is no longer needed with Xcode 14
With the release of Xcode 14, Apple has introduced a new feature that eliminates the need for using a separate App Icon Generator tool. The Xcode 14 now includes an integrated App Icon Asset Catalog, which simplifies the process of managing app icons for iOS, macOS, watchOS, and other Apple platforms.
To utilize the new App Icon Asset Catalog, follow these steps:
- Open your Xcode project.
- Navigate to the "Assets.xcassets" folder.
- Right-click on the folder and select "New App Icon Set".
- Provide a name for the App Icon Set.
- Drag and drop your app icon image files into the appropriate slots for each platform and size.
- Xcode will automatically generate the required app icon variations based on the provided image files.
By utilizing the built-in App Icon Asset Catalog in Xcode 14, developers can now easily manage their app icons directly within the Xcode IDE, eliminating the need for external tools or services.
