Icon Design: How to Create Custom Icons with AI
Icons are everywhere — in apps, websites, presentations, and more. Creating custom icons used to require design skills. AI can create custom icons in seconds. Here's how on Crevisto.
What the Icon Design tool does
The Icon Design tool generates custom icons from your description. The result includes:
- Clean design — simple, recognizable icons
- Consistent style — all icons match a consistent style
- Scalable — works at any size
- Multiple formats — PNG, SVG-ready
- Professional look — polished, app-quality
How to create an icon
1. Visit the Icon Design tool
2. Enter your icon description
3. Click "Generate"
4. Download your icon
Tips for best results
- Be specific — "shopping cart icon" is better than "cart"
- Include the style — "minimalist", "filled", "outline" helps
- Generate multiple times — each icon is unique
- Pick the best one — choose the one that fits your needs
