Description

Convert any SVG artwork into an SF Symbol file that you can use in Xcode. Configure cap & base lines and right and left margins by dragging with the mouse or precisely via text inputs. Configurable Minimum and Maximum scales to control how the icon looks at different sizes and weights. Visually compare your custom symbol next to any SF symbol in real time. Toggle visibility of individual paths. Observe all changes in the preview window in real time before exporting. Includes instructions on how to use Custom SF symbols in both UIKit and SwiftUI projects. Custom symbols that you create in the app can be dropped into Apples SF Symbols app for further customization. ___________________________________ "CustomSymbols Annual" is an auto-renewable subscription for $13.49.

  • Misleading (it is not actually free)

    You only get a 7-day free trial until the entire app is pay-walled (no exporting unless you pay). Please make this known in the description to avoid such a misleading app description.

  • Excelllent!

    I usually don't write reviews, but this uitility - and I mean this in the best way possible - streamlines turning any vector image into an SF Symbol so good I plan to purchase the lifetime IAP. This app is NOT really geared for a graphics person who wishes to create SFSymbols (even if you know what such a thing is). Rather, if a graphics person can send to YOU - a developer who "consumes" a vector image - said image, you can turn it quickly into an SF Symbol and utilize everything that means.

  • An App for one small feature at an exorbitant price

    This app providers a missing feature that we should expect in any decent image editing app - an ability to save as Custom SF. There is a way to do this now manually with out such an app. This saves some time - until any good app provides this feature. For such a small feature this is extreemly over priced. $20 (19.99) every year or $35 as one time - is exorbitant compared to the price, features and capability of other apps like Vectornator. The youtube video shows some tips on features. If you change features such as "Regular-M" under reference scale - there is no user feed back on range of allowed values or what these means. The app also has limited to no user feedback on changing these values.

    Great app for adjusting scale and baseline of your svgs and comparing with existing symbols. Would love to see support for hierarchical/multicolor editing.

  • amazing!

    This is not a free app with in-app purchases. It's a paid app with a free trial which has to be activated prior to verifying that the app actually works. The main function of the app is exporting SF Symbols. This functionality is locked behind the trial. In essence the app is a black box with an unknown price and an unverifiable functionality. The developer should be upfront: list the price, say that the app is not functional without activating the trial. Right now it's a waste of time.

  • This!

    Custom Symbols makes the process of taking SVGs into SF Symbols as easy as you could wish for. While it does not allow you to tweak each of the glyph variations individually it does allow you to get what you probably want in practice for many use cases. This is especially true for tab bar glyphs where you probably don’t care too much about the dozen variations and can optimize it for the tab bar appearance. This is even easier than using things like Sketch templates to create/export icon variations. Highly recommended.

    This app is FANTASTIC! I've tried to make my own SF Symbols before, but it's just way too much work to do it properly. With this little app I dropped my own icon design in and in seconds had the layout and resizing of a custom SF Symbol PERFECT! I'm so impressed with how good the icon looks in all of the font sizes and weights.

  • Brilliant App

    I tried creating symbols by hand myself and couldn't figure it out. This app made creating SF symbols a breeze. Really wow!
