good but needs update

good but needs update for Macos Big Sur. Since the icon visual appearence has been changed. Easy way to add support for new style icon is to implement overall padding. Please consider update while no one added support for Big Sur style icons into their application. Thank you

Not for small icon editing

If you have small icons to create or edit (e.g. 100px square), this will not work for you. If you want to generate the full set of iOS finder icon sizes (for example), this tool can do that.

Small but useful

Great little app that packs a lot of useful features for those looking to create their own icons and logos. Two small issues bother me and they are both related to the preview: there is no option to zoom in or out and you cannot drag and drop visual elements like images and text with your mouse. Both can be overlooked but it would be nice if they were fixed in a future update. Otherwise, a great tool for creating unique icon designs.

Works Great

Works Great. Only think I wish it did was saved the image location also when you save the profile. That would make it easier to go back and edit the icon. That asside great work.

Time saver for developers

Don’t expect this to be an icon *drawing* program. You have to have the image in PNG format before you start. But it does dress up the icon nicely in a few short steps and it resizes your image into out all those gazillion icon sizes you need for your iOS / macOS program with the press of a button. Granted, you could do the same in ImageMagick in about an hour, but for 5 bucks, this was totally worth it. For actually creating your own icon (for us starving programmers who can’t pay someone to design an icon) I recommend Inkscape. It is free software and it was pretty painless to do, especially if you’re creating a “flat” icon that is reasonably simple. Search on google for “How to draw a flat icon inkscape” (minus the quotes) for a great tutorial on YouTube by youtuber PhotoAdvanced2 that will give you all the skills you need to create a really nice flat icon. It was actually kind of fun.

Great application but…..

The application is great, however, it keeps crashing. Other than that I have no complaints.

Buggy and lacks features

Wouldn’t say it’s worth 5 dollars. Lots of crashes and could really benfit from just a few more features with the “image” section such as adding more than one image, strecthing and such. Doesn’t need to be photoshop level but something to make it worth the money would be nice. Otherwise there are already many free alternatives out there that do the exact same thing.

Great little app!

I whipped out 2 logos in like 10 minutes. Just what I needed at a reasonable price!

Simple but straight forward

Mapaca1, a scam would be someone selling something misepresented. I just downloaded the app and tested it. Nothing misrepresented. If you were expecting some photoshop level app, you should have done your homework or simply look at all of the sample pictures. You can see that it is a very simple app. No ads, so how is this basically a scam? Actually, even though it is simplistic, I find it very useful. The ONLY thing I can say for constructive criticism is that when you export the icons, give us a button to create a new folder please. Kind of like when you save the profile, there is a “New Folder” button in the bottom left corner; otherwise, nice little app. Also, if you aren’t lazy, go to www dot appsliced dot co. You can search for any app and set an alarm to let you know if the app is free or even cheaper and it will only notify you when the app hits your target price. That way, you don’t have to complain about spending 5 bucks...

Lot's of Features!

I was really surprised at how much can be done with this app. Change a background, or get rid of it. Add shadowing, and choose how heavy it will be, or if you want it to be blurred. It's almost an Illustrator for icons, and it's super easy to use.

So

This is a very basic application maybe for a 5 year old who wants to play. I just waisted $ 4.99. This is pretty much a scam.

Great App!

Fabulous App to convert any picture to an Icon you can use on your Mac. MANY great options to choose from.

Amazing tool to design a logo!

I think this is the best logo design app on Mac Appstore. I tried many apps but this is the most app i like. It have a visual design so everyone can use easily. I often use this app to create my own logos. Just few easy steps and convenient tools i can make so many awesome logos. Export it then send to my friends and they were very surprided. Thanks for creating it for users!

Inadequate in all but one way

I’ll start by being positive. The only good thing about this app is the export feature; it is wonderfully simple, especially for someone like me with zero design experience. However, the lack of tools available to the user, from basic formatting to the fact that font sizes might take 5 minutes to change, is entirely frustrating. Do not waste your money on this app.

Decent Beginner Graphic Design App

This app was good for me because I haven’t had the time to learn something more powerful, like Photoshop. But, this app has a few basic inadequacies that really take away from the overall experience. The biggest one is that you can’t have multiple text or icon objects. So, if you plan on making an icon in the app, plan on having a couple rounds of saving your output and then importing that back into the app. The same goes if you want to include multiple pieces of text. You also can’t manually edit some of the parameters (such as Font Size), so if you previously had it set to the highest setting and then want it at a low level (say, changing Font Size from 900 to 200), you are goin to be waiting a few minutes with your hand held on the mouse. To me, this seems like a big detracting feature which would’ve dissuaded me from purchasing had I known about it. However, I doubt it would be very hard to fix, so if the developers make a fix I would be happy to update my review. You also can’t save a canvas to go back and work on later. There are workarounds to this (namely, saving the output directly before making a major change), but this makes the app much less accesible. Overall, if you’re like me and desparate for a simple graphic editor, this is a solid option. If you have more experience than I do, I would wait until they fix the two things I mentioned above before even considering buying this thing.
