Convert Icons Between Windows and macOS

Convert Icons Between Windows and macOS

Cross-platform conversion is one of the long-lived reasons developers keep IconWorkshop in the toolchain. It can read both Windows and macOS icon families and convert them in either direction.

Windows and macOS icon conversion in IconWorkshop

Single file or batch

  • Open one icon and save it for the other platform when you are troubleshooting or reviewing a single asset.
  • Use the batch convert commands from the File Explorer when a whole folder has to move from ICO to ICNS or back again.

The current product page keeps this promise simple: IconWorkshop targets Windows ICO and macOS ICNS, RSC, and BIN from the same Windows workstation.
