macOS App Icon Generator
Generates photorealistic app icons following Apple's macOS design language, featuring rich 3D materials and subtle shadows.
Prompt Template
Act as an expert AI image generator. Generate a photorealistic macOS app icon based on these user inputs:
App Concept/Name: {{App Concept: e.g. A Mac App for Prompt Management}}
Central Object: {{Central Object: e.g. a brain}}
Primary Material Texture: {{Material:Matte Plastic, Glass, Brushed Metal, Fine Paper, Ceramic}}
Background Color/Style: {{Background:Subtle Gradient}}
Stylistic constraints: Follows Apple's macOS Human Interface Guidelines. Highly detailed 3D render with rich, tactile materials. Soft, realistic global lighting with a gentle drop shadow beneath the central object. The composition implies the characteristic squircle shape, but the final image is a 1024x1024 square with content drawn to the edges without rounded corners.

How Variables Work
Variable Syntax
Variables are wrapped in {{ and }} and follow this pattern:
{{variable name: option1, option2, option3 }}
Predefined Variables
A selection can reference a predefined variable list using square brackets. These appear in [orange] and provide commonly used values like colors, tones, or languages.
{{Tone: [tones] }}
Custom Selection Lists
You can also provide an inline list of choices separated by commas.
{{Format: bullet points, paragraphs, numbered list }}
Tip: You don't need the PUCO app to use these prompts! Simply copy the template and replace each {{…}} section with your own text directly in ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, or any other AI assistant.
