BayIcons For Mac

To ensure your iPhone, iPad, Mac, and WatchKit applications’ icons look their best in all situations, you must integrate into your project’s resources various custom size images.

BayIcons is an intuitive macOS app designed to streamline the icons creation process: simply provide the source image template, and the app automatically handles the rest.

The app comes with a tabbed user interface that allows you to quickly switch between the iPhone + iPad, Mac, and WatchKit view. In each case you get to choose the color scheme that should be used: BayIcons comes with some predefined collections to help you get started.

When dealing with iPhone or iPad icons you can choose between circle, rounded rectangle, or plain designs, and the app will instantly make all the adjustments. You can preview the results in the app’s main window, before exporting the icon set.

For Mac apps, BayIcons will also create associated folder and document icons: take into account that you get to use different images for each view.

Note that the app generates all the required custom sizes and is capable to quickly export them as an Xcode assets catalog. As a result, you get to integrate them into your project with minimal effort. Other export options include folders, distributions for App Store or iTunes, or favicons for web usage.

Manually creating iPhone, iPad, Mac, and WatchKit icons that follow the Apple guidelines can prove to be rather time-consuming, especially if you want to use circle icons for your apps.

BayIcons greatly reduces the processing time by allowing you to use the same image file to quickly generate all the required icon files, while also providing support for further customizations.
