iOS how to set app icon and launch images

Question

How do I set the images so that I can archive and validate my app  The screen looks like this now      So the first one says 29pt  but then it also says 2x  So do I put a 29x29 image or a 58x58 image  And where do I put all of the other ones   I know that there are more sizes than 29  40  and 60    Anyway  what I tried was I dragged a 29x29 png onto the first slot  a 40x40 onto the second  and a 60x60 onto the third and fourth  When I went to Product- gt Archive  I get       Users kendon Documents iPhone Apps Sales Tool Sales Tool Images xcassets  The app icon set named  AppIcon  did not have any applicable content

To save a bit time   1  You can mark your app icon images all in finder and drag them into your Assets catalog all at once by dragging into one of the empty slots of the app icon imageset  When you hold your drag over the slot  several of the other slots look selected and when you drop those all will be filled up at once  Note that this works in XCode 8  I haven t tried XCode 7   but in XCode 9 beta not yet     2  The  Technical Q amp A QA1686  apple documentation site has the sizes per app icon slot already calculated for you in a nice image and also contains the correct image names conventions

I use a tool called Prepo to produce all the right image sizes   You simply feed the app you image file and it will spit out each necessary file with an appropriate name   Once you do this  you can then drag in the appropriate files or simply point to your Prepo exported folder

This is a very frustrating part of XCode  Like many  I wasted hours on this when I switched to a newer version of xcode  version 8   The solution for me was to open the properties for my project and under the  App Icons and Launch Images  choose the  migrate  option for the icons  This made absolutely no sense to me as I already had all my icons there  but it worked  Unfortunately I now seem to have two copies of my launcher icons in the project though

You can easily do it without resizing yourself or doing anything  just choose your icon at an app store icon generator website https   getappscreenshots com app-icon-generator and it ll generate all required files and all icon sizes so you can just copy the files and paste in your project s folder

In the left list  right click on  AppIcon  and click on  Open in finder  A folder with name  AppIcon appiconset  will open  Paste all the graphics with required resolution there  Once done  all those images will be visible in this same screen one in your screen shot   then drag them to appropriate box  App icons have been added  Same process for Launch images  Launch images through this process are added for iOS 7 and below  For iOS 8 separate LaunchScreen xib file is made by default

Update  Unless you love resizing icons one by one  check out Schmoudi s answer  It s just a lot easier   Icon sizes    Above image from Designing for iOS 9  They are the same for iOS 10   How to Set the App Icon  Click Assets xcassets in the Project navigator and then choose AppIcon     This will give you an empty app icon set     Now just drag the right sized image  in  png format  from Finder onto every blank in the app set  The app icon should be all set up now   How to create the right sized images  The image at the very top tells the pixels sizes for for each point size that is required in iOS 9  However  even if I don t get this answer updated for future versions of iOS  you can still figure out the correct pixel sizes using the method below   Look at how many points  pt  each blank on the empty image set is  If the image is 1x then the pixels are the same as the points  For 2x double the points and 3x triple the points  So  for example  in the first blank above  29pt 2x  you would need a 58x58 pixel image   You can start with a 1024x1024 pixel image and then downsize it to the correct sizes  You can do it yourself or there are also websites and scripts for getting the right sizes  Do a search for  ios app icon generator  or something similar   I don t think the names matter as long as you get the dimensions right  but the general naming convention is as follows   Icon-29 png         29x29 pixels Icon-29 2x png      58x58 pixels Icon-29 3x png      87x87 pixels   Launch Image  Although you can use an image for the launch screen  consider using a launch screen storyboard file  This will conveniently resize for every size and orientation  Check out this SO answer or the following documentation for help with this   Useful documentation   App Icon Launch Screen   The Xcode images in this post were created with Xcode 7
