Whether you're developing native mobile applications or hybrid applications with tools like React-Native, the finalization phase of the application with icon creation is unavoidable.

48x48, 72x72, 96x96,... as time goes on, the number of different images required for your application's icon to display correctly on all devices becomes enormous.

Fortunately, there are a few platforms that offer to automatically create all the resources with the right size and the right file names, which you'll just need to paste into your application's assets.

App Icon Generator

Personally I use App Icon Generator which allows you to do all this from a simple version of your icon in 1024x1024 pixels.

I particularly appreciate this tool because there is no intrusive advertising (no advertising at all, actually), no need to create a user account or give your email, it's so unusual that it deserves to be highlighted!
