Generate app icons with Pixelmost

Create the perfect app icon for your project with Pixelmost's advanced icon-generation feature! Experiment with different models and keywords to design icons tailored to your needs.

Choose the Right Icon Model

Four Models: Choose from Basic, Pro, Pro 1.1, and Ultra. Each model offers unique properties and generates distinct results.

Icon Playground: Use the feature independently in "Icon Playground," where you can experiment freely with keywords and styles.

Project Integration: Generate icons linked to your app design projects. The system extracts keywords directly from your app description for optimal results.

Token Usage and Access

Token-Based Usage: Each generation costs 5 AI-tokens. Note that some models require a Pixelmost Premium subscription.

Free Access to Basic: The Basic model is always available, even without a subscription.

Bring your app to life with a custom icon. Test the feature with a 3-day AI Starter trial where you get 30 + 75 tokens to try the Basic and Pro models. We are certain that our solutions are among the best on the market if you aim to create a simple yet recognizable app icon.

Prompt Tips for Better Results

The style we aim for is modern, simplistic icons without text. They are designed to stay recognizable in small sizes on a phone or tablet.

AI image generation works primarily with focused keywords rather than long prompts, so keep requests relevant and specific. Physical and color keywords tend to generate the best icons. We can generate a keyword list from your app description, or you can set the list yourself. You can also use the Random feature in Icon Playground to find inspiration.
