Questions
Is DockDoodle free?
Yes. DockDoodle is completely free, with no account, no watermark and no limits on downloads.
Are my drawings or images uploaded anywhere?
No. Everything happens inside your browser. Your drawings and images never leave your device.
How do I put my icon on a Mac app?
Click Copy, open Finder, select the app and choose File > Get Info. Click the small icon at the top-left of the Info window and press Command-V. You can also drag the downloaded .icns file onto that small icon. Step-by-step guide.
Will my icon get the gray box on macOS Tahoe?
macOS Tahoe puts app icons that do not match its rounded-square template inside a gray box. DockDoodle draws every icon on Apple's grid, so it already fills the shape. Icons you set yourself through Get Info have not been boxed so far on macOS 26, though Apple could change that in an update. More about the Tahoe gray box.
Which file formats can I download?
A 1024 x 1024 PNG, an .icns file containing every size from 16 to 1024 pixels, and a ZIP with a complete .iconset folder, the .icns and the PNG. See all sizes.
Can I use the icons in my own app?
Yes. You own what you draw. For apps that target macOS 26 or later Apple recommends building layered icons in Icon Composer, and a DockDoodle PNG works well as a starting layer.
Does it work on iPad or a phone?
Yes. DockDoodle works with touch, and on iPad it responds to Apple Pencil pressure.
