Technical Q&A QA1762

icon dimensions (0x0) don't meet the size requirements.

Q:  My app fails validation on icon size requirements but the icon(s) appear to be correct, how do I resolve it?

A: The following error messages are the result of a developer tools issue with validating app icons.

iPhone/iPod Touch: Icon.png: icon dimensions (0x0) don't meet the size requirements. The icon file must be 57x57 pixels, in .png format
 
iPad: Icon.png: icon dimensions (0x0) don't meet the size requirements. The icon file must be 72x72 pixels, in .png format

The solution is to download and install the latest version of Application Loader, restart Xcode and then reattempt your submission. In most cases, this will fix the problem with Xcode's validation process.

If the error message persists, submit the app using Application Loader. For Application Loader usage, see the section titled "Using Application Loader" within the iTunes Connect Developer Guide.
