White-labelled Mobile App Icon Logo Specifications

For the best mobile app experience, provide your logo in the following specifications:

Logo Format Requirements

  • Preferred Format: SVG (vector format)
  • Alternative Format: PNG (if SVG not available)
  • Minimum Resolution: 1024 × 1024 pixels
  • DPI: 72 dpi minimum (for PNG files)

Why These Specifications Matter:

  • SVG format: Ensures scalability without quality loss across different device sizes and resolutions
  • High resolution PNG: Provides crisp display on high-density screens (Retina displays, etc.)
  • Square aspect ratio: 1:1 ratio ensures consistent appearance across iOS and Android platforms
