Icon Generator
App and UI icons from a prompt. Pick a style, choose a model, and download the result at full resolution with no watermark.
Pick a style on the left, then hit Apply. Your original stays untouched — you always see both.
How to use Icon Generator
Upload your image
JPG, PNG or WEBP. If the asset is going to be cropped several ways, start from the widest, highest-resolution version you have.
Choose the platform and shape
Square, portrait, wide, circle-safe, bold or minimal. The choice sets the ratio and where the subject sits inside it.
Download and post
Correct dimensions, full resolution, no watermark. It uploads without the platform re-cropping it for you.

Why use Icon Generator
What Icon Generator does
App and UI icons from a prompt.
Room left for text
Deliberate empty space where a headline or caption goes, rather than a full-bleed image with nowhere to put type.
Consistent across a profile
Avatar, banner and post images that read as one identity instead of three unrelated pictures.
One source, every shape
Generate square, portrait, wide and circular versions from a single upload.
Full resolution
Enough resolution that the platform's own compression does not visibly degrade it.
Correct dimensions per platform
The right ratio and pixel size, so the platform does not recompress and re-crop the image on upload.
What Icon Generator changes
Create an app icon: one clear central metaphor, a simple rounded-square composition, flat or subtly gradient colour, and full legibility at 48 pixels.
Your face, bone structure and skin tone are held fixed on every generation — only what is described above is changed. Add your own brief in the Custom tab to take it further.
Icon Generator for every slot a profile has
A profile is a set of images with different jobs. Each one is cropped, masked and overlaid differently.
Feed posts
Square and 4:5, which is the ratio that occupies the most vertical space in most feeds.
Stories and reels covers
9:16 with the top and bottom left clear of interface chrome.
Thumbnails
High contrast, one clear focal point, and space for a short piece of large text.
Link previews and OG cards
The 1200×630 card that appears whenever a link is shared anywhere.

Benefits
No subscription
Credits are a one-time purchase, they never expire, and nothing renews on its own. Buy once and use them whenever.
Two models to choose from
Nano Banana and GPT Image handle the same job differently. If one result is not right, the other model often is.
Every aspect ratio
Square, 4:5, 9:16, 16:9 and more, chosen before generating so nothing important gets cropped away afterwards.
Full resolution, no watermark
The download is the full generated image with nothing overlaid — usable in print, in a listing or commercially.
The free tools stay free
Compress, convert, crop, resize, rotate and the rest run on your device, unlimited, with no account and no credit cost.
What people use it for
What it is mainly used for
App and UI icons from a prompt. Pick a style, choose a model, and download the result at full resolution with no watermark.
Team and community profiles
Consistent avatars across a group, which makes a community look organised.
Seasonal profile refreshes
A quick restyle for a campaign or a holiday, without redesigning anything.
A new profile photo across every platform
One portrait, composed correctly for a circular avatar, a square post and a wide banner.
Channel and page branding
Banner, avatar and thumbnail that read as one identity.
Prompt ideas
Say where the subject should sit and where the text is going. Social composition is mostly about reserving space, and a prompt that does not mention the text is the reason the headline ends up over someone's face.
Change one thing at a time
If a result is close, edit a single detail and run it again. Rewriting the whole prompt gives you an unrelated image and no information about what the change did.
Say what must not change
A short exclusion — "do not change the face", "keep the label text" — is often more effective than any amount of positive description.
Keep it short
Three or four specific clauses beat a paragraph. Long prompts dilute every instruction in them, including the one you cared about.
Name the framing
Close-up, head and shoulders, full body, centred, offset. Framing decides what the image is actually of.
Avoid asking for text in the image
Generated lettering is still unreliable. Ask for empty space where the text should go and add real type afterwards.
Pick the ratio first
Generating square and cropping to vertical throws away part of the frame. Choose the shape before you generate.
More about Icon Generator
The size that matters is the smallest one. Most feed images are seen first at a couple of hundred pixels, and many at forty. Anything depending on fine detail or low contrast simply disappears at that scale, which is why the strongest social images are almost always the simplest.
The most common mistake is generating a beautiful full-bleed image and then discovering there is nowhere to put the headline. Reserving the empty space before generating, rather than hunting for it afterwards, is the whole trick.
Every platform wants a different shape, and getting it wrong is expensive in a way that is easy to miss. A square image on a vertical feed wastes half the screen. A banner sized for one platform gets its subject cropped out by another. A profile picture composed as a rectangle loses the top of someone's head the moment it is masked into a circle. Icon Generator produces the right shape with the subject where it needs to be.
Getting the best result from Icon Generator
- For stories, keep everything important out of the top and bottom sixth of the frame.
- Generate a few variants and look at them in the actual feed before choosing.
- Keep the source image; the next platform will want a different shape.
- Start from the largest, least compressed original you have — a screenshot of a photo has already lost detail that cannot be recovered.
- Soft, even light in the source photo gives the best result almost regardless of what you are generating.
- Judge every result at full size, not zoomed out. Problems hide at small sizes.
- Generate two or three times before deciding. Results vary between runs, and the first is not reliably the best.
- Check hands, text, jewellery and glasses in any result before sharing it — those are still where image models most often slip.
