IconScanner
IconScanner is a utility for macOS that extracts and exports icons from applications and files on your system. It allows users to browse installed apps, preview their icon assets at various resolutions, and save them in multiple formats (PNG, ICNS, etc.). It is useful for designers, developers, and anyone needing to work with or repurpose application icons without installing the full app or manually digging through package contents.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionWe could not find detailed recent information about IconScanner's native Apple Silicon support status. Based on the bundle ID (org.sveinbjorn.IconScanner), this appears to be a project developed by an independent creator. To determine whether a native build exists or is planned before macOS 28 removes Rosetta 2 in September 2028, contact the developer directly through the project's website or repository. If the developer is no longer maintaining this tool, you may want to explore alternatives like AppShelf, which provides icon extraction and management on macOS and runs natively on Apple Silicon. Given the relatively short window until Rosetta 2 is retired, it is worth checking the project's status sooner rather than later if IconScanner is a regular part of your workflow.
