App Splash Screen Generator

Pixazo's free AI App Splash Screen Maker turns a one-sentence brief into a high-resolution splash-screen image at the exact dimensions your platform expects — iOS LaunchScreen sizes, Android 12+ adaptive icon, or PWA manifest size.

Platform sizes

Which canvas size should you pick for each platform?

Whether you call it a splash screen generator, maker or creator, it is the same job. iOS, Android, and the web each define a splash screen at different sizes. Pick the matching canvas size in the App Splash Screen Maker — Pixazo generates the image, you place it into your project's expected asset slot.

If you are building a PWA rather than a native app, the same artwork also serves as the Apple touch startup image — iOS reads it from apple-touch-startup-image link tags, one per device size. This generator produces the images; you still add the tags yourself, because they live in your HTML rather than in the artwork.

How it works

How do you design an app splash screen with Pixazo?

Four steps from prompt to high-resolution splash image. No design background needed — most splash screens generate in under 60 seconds.

  1. 01

    Set your canvas size

    Choose the preset closest to your target — 1024 × 1536 (tall) for a phone launch screen, 1024 × 1024 for an Android adaptive-icon background, or up to 3840 × 2160 for tablet and desktop PWAs. On export you scale or crop to the exact pixel size your platform needs, such as 1170 × 2532 for iPhone Pro or 512 × 512 for a PWA maskable icon.

  2. 02

    Describe the brand and feel

    Tell Pixazo your brand colors, logo motif (or paste a logo description), and the feel you want — minimal, bold, dark, premium. Two or three sentences is plenty.

  3. 03

    Generate the splash image

    The AI App Splash Screen Maker renders a high-resolution image at the canvas size you picked. Re-roll the prompt if you want variations until the composition feels right.

  4. 04

    Download & place into your project

    Download as PNG or JPG and drop it into the matching slot — Assets.xcassets on iOS, res/drawable on Android, or the icons[] array of your manifest.json.

Review rejections

Why do app stores reject splash screens, and how does the App Splash Screen Maker avoid that?

Four reasons Apple and Google bounce splash assets — and what Pixazo's defaults do to keep your AI app splash screen out of the rejection pile.

Apple Guideline 2.3.10

Text overlay on the launch screen

Apple rejects launch screens that show app name, "loading", or marketing copy. The launch screen must match the first interactive screen of the app, not advertise it.

Pixazo's iOS preset strips text by default — logo + background only.

Apple HIG

Animated launch screen

Apple's Human Interface Guidelines explicitly forbid animation on the launch screen — it should be a static image that feels like the first frame of the app.

The App Splash Screen Maker exports static PNG only — animation is offered as an optional Android intro instead.

Google Play 4.4

Splash that hides the device status bar

Google rejects splash designs that overlay the status bar or notch — system UI must remain visible. The 432 dp adaptive icon must respect safe-area insets.

Pixazo's Android preset uses the adaptive-icon spec — the status bar is guaranteed visible.

Google Play 4.5

Splash longer than 4 seconds

Splash that visibly delays app launch counts as a "loading" screen and triggers rejection. Total splash-to-interactive time must be under 4 seconds.

Pixazo exports static assets only — timing remains your app's responsibility.

Limits

What can't the Pixazo AI App Splash Screen Maker do?

If your project depends on any of these, you'll want a different tool. We'd rather you know up front than ship something that surprises you mid-build.

  • 01

    Animated splash (Lottie, video, motion intros)

    The App Splash Screen Maker exports static images only. Apple rejects animated launch screens anyway, but Android allows them via Lottie or video — you'll need After Effects → Lottie or a motion tool for that.

  • 02

    Full asset bundles (.xcassets, drawable XML, manifest packages)

    The App Splash Screen Maker outputs a single PNG or JPG at the canvas size you pick. It does not generate a multi-size Storyboard asset catalog, Android XML drawable + theme, or a packaged manifest. You drop the generated image into the matching slot in your project yourself.

  • 03

    Onboarding flows (3–5 intro screens)

    Splash and onboarding are different surfaces. Splash is the first 1.5 seconds before app launch; onboarding is the swipe-through after. Pixazo handles splash only — onboarding is a separate generator.

  • 04

    A/B testing splash variants in store

    App Store Connect's Custom Product Pages and Google's Store Listing Experiments are great for testing splash variants. The AI App Splash Screen Maker generates the assets; the A/B test infrastructure is on you.

  • 05

    Guaranteed App Store or Play Store approval

    We follow Apple's HIG and Google's Material 3 defaults — but reviewers exercise judgment. We can avoid common rejection causes, not guarantee outcomes.

Trusted by developers

What do developers say about the AI App Splash Screen Maker?

"I needed a launch screen for a fintech iOS app and didn't want to spend a day in Figma. Set the canvas to 1170 × 2532, two prompts later I had a clean dark-mode splash that dropped straight into Assets.xcassets. The App Store review passed first attempt."
Rohan Patel iOS Developer
"The Pixazo AI App Splash Screen Maker is the fastest way I've found to get a 432 × 432 adaptive icon for the Android 12+ Splash Screen API. I picked the brand color, prompted a minimal logo treatment, dropped the PNG into res/drawable. Done in ten minutes."
Sofia Lindqvist Android Developer
"For our PWA we needed maskable icons at 192 and 512. I generated each size separately with the same prompt and got matching designs both times. Way faster than briefing a designer for what is essentially a one-line job."

FAQ

AI App Splash Screen Maker — frequently asked questions

Ten questions developers ask most often before using the App Splash Screen Maker.

What sizes can the App Splash Screen Maker generate for iOS?
Any iPhone LaunchScreen dimension — 1242×2688, 1170×2532, 1284×2778, 828×1792 — plus 1024×1024 for App Store assets. You pick the canvas size in the maker and run the prompt for that size. To cover multiple devices, run the maker once per size with the same prompt.
Does Pixazo work with the Android 12+ Splash Screen API?
Yes. Set the canvas to 432×432 (or 1024×1024 for higher density) and prompt the maker to generate the foreground icon over a transparent or theme-color background. Drop the resulting PNG into res/drawable and reference it in your Splash Screen theme XML.
Will my AI app splash screen pass Apple's App Store review?
Pixazo follows Apple's Human Interface Guidelines defaults — no text overlays, static design, matches first screen feel. We can't guarantee approval (Apple reviewers have discretion), but the most common rejection causes are avoided by default.
Can the App Splash Screen Maker generate animated splash screens (Lottie, video)?
No. Pixazo exports static splash images only. Animated intros via Lottie or video require a separate motion tool. Static splash is what Apple accepts anyway — they reject most animated launch screens.
How is an app splash screen different from a launch screen and onboarding?
Splash and launch screen are the same on iOS (LaunchScreen.storyboard). Onboarding is the multi-screen intro after launch — different surface, different design tool. Pixazo handles splash; onboarding is a separate generator.
Is the App Splash Screen Maker free to use?
Yes — you can start with a 7-day free trial (credit card required), with no subscription needed to begin. Sign in to generate, then save or download at full resolution. Nothing is watermarked on the trial.
Do I need Figma, Sketch or any design software?
No. You describe the splash screen in plain English and the maker renders it — brand colour, wordmark placement, background treatment. The output drops straight into your asset catalog, drawable folder or manifest icon slot.
Can I use the generated splash screen in a paid or commercial app?
Yes. Splash screens you generate with Pixazo are cleared for commercial use, including paid apps, client work and apps you ship on the App Store or Google Play, with no extra licensing fee.
What file format and resolution does the maker output?
High-resolution PNG or JPG at the canvas size you picked — PNG when you need transparency around a foreground icon for the Android 12+ API, JPG when you want a smaller full-bleed background. Both export at the full pixel dimensions, not a preview crop.
How long does it take to generate a splash screen?
A single splash screen takes a few seconds. Most teams run the same prompt across each canvas size they need — iPhone, Android foreground icon, PWA maskable — so a full set is usually done in a couple of minutes.
