Integration
How to use the AppIcon.appiconset export
The goal is to move from one icon concept to an iOS-ready asset folder with as little manual prep work as possible.
1
Generate and refine the icon direction
Start with a prompt, choose the strongest iOS icon concept, and refine the background or shape before export.
2
Download the full AppIcon.appiconset package
Export the ZIP so the `AppIcon.appiconset` folder and `Contents.json` stay together as one iOS handoff unit.
3
Move the folder into Assets.xcassets
Copy the exported icon set into your Xcode project so the iPhone, iPad, and App Store icon entries stay mapped correctly.

Why use a dedicated AppIcon.appiconset page instead of the generic iOS icon page?
Because this page focuses on the exact Xcode folder handoff: the AppIcon.appiconset directory, the Contents.json file, and the iOS icon structure developers actually need.
Does this export Contents.json too?
Yes. The export includes `Contents.json` along with the icon image files so Xcode can read the icon set correctly.
Is the App Store marketing icon included?
Yes. The export includes the 1024px iOS marketing icon in the same AppIcon.appiconset package.
Can I just drop the exported folder into Xcode?
That is the intended workflow. This page is designed around producing a folder that is ready for `Assets.xcassets`, instead of asking you to manually sort individual files.
