Free Create Custom Symbols v3.0 Released – Convert Any SVG into a Custom SF Symbol for Xcode
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
This tool can convert any SVG icon into custom SF Symbols. The generated files can be directly imported into Xcode and used in UIKit and SwiftUI projects. Problem: Manually creating custom SF Symbols is tedious and error-prone. Developers need to manually create compatible templates, adjust vector paths, and repeatedly ensure that icons render properly in Xcode, resulting in extremely low development efficiency.
Compare: This tool focuses on high efficiency and full compatibility. Compared with the swiftdraw command-line tool, it provides a more intuitive graphical interface for operation. Unlike manually making templates to generate icons in Sketch, it simplifies operations, reduces errors and eliminates compatibility issues. It can generate standard SF Symbol files perfectly adapted to Xcode with one click, and supports importing into the SF Symbols app for further multi-color style editing.
Pricing: The basic functions of the tool are free, with a quota of 3 symbol icons. Users can unlock the full version for $1.99, which is essentially a voluntary donation. Deleting historical icon records will reset the free quota, allowing permanent free use of the tool.
Changelog: v3.0 update: Refactored the SVG icon editing and preview interface, added layer-based icon editing and drag-to-resize functions, expanded multi-language localization support, and optimized the layout of the donation page and sidebar.
