Xamarin App Icon Generator (2026)
Verified App Store Specifications
Practical guide for Xamarin Standard Icons
This page is intended for teams maintaining an existing Xamarin codebase. New cross-platform projects should normally follow current .NET MAUI asset workflows instead.
- Useful for maintenance of existing Xamarin projects
- Create iOS and Android assets from one square master
- Keep the original source outside generated platform folders
- Prefer .NET MAUI guidance for new projects
Recommended workflow
Confirm the project type
Identify whether the app uses Xamarin.Forms, Xamarin.iOS, or Xamarin.Android before replacing resources.
Generate from one master
Use the same high-resolution artwork for both platform sets to avoid visual differences.
Test a release build
Verify launcher, settings, notification, and store-listing appearances before shipping the maintenance update.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Treating legacy Xamarin and .NET MAUI folders as interchangeable
- Replacing generated files without keeping the source master
- Testing only a debug launcher icon
Continue your workflow
Frequently asked questions
What is the standard size generated by the Xamarin Standard Icons?
Our generator processes your asset to produce standard 2026 formats: a 1024x1024 px PNG master for Apple App Store Connect, a 512x512 px alpha-transparency compliant image for Google Play, and custom density-specific buckets ready to integrate with Xcode and Android Studio.
Does this Xamarin Standard Icons construct ready-to-import platform packages?
Yes. Selecting Xamarin compiles a ready-to-import ZIP containing standard file architectures like Xcode's AppIcon.appiconset with its Content.json manifest, or Android's res/mipmap folder hierarchies, speeding up native development.
