iOS Icon Gallery, built by designer Jim Nielsen, is a visual archive of App Store app icons browsable by color, designer, developer, category, and year, with matching galleries for macOS and watchOS.
Browsing by year is the standout feature — you can watch how app icon trends actually shifted, skeuomorphic to flat to the current soft-gradient look, instead of just seeing a snapshot of what's popular now.
Genuinely useful for icon designers and anyone doing an app rebrand who wants historical and current reference in one place, not just a mood board of today's trends.
It only covers icons that have been manually submitted and added, so it's a curated sample of the App Store, not an exhaustive or automatically updated index.
A showcase of beautifully designed iOS app icons.
