What is Icon Museum?
Icon Museum is a web gallery for designers who collect app icon references before starting visual work. It presents a curated set of iOS app icons, with search across the collection and a weekly email for new picks. The current gallery shows 131 iOS icons, with macOS marked as coming soon.
Why Icon Museum works
App icon research usually means scattered screenshots, App Store tabs, and old mood boards that go stale. Icon Museum puts the references in one searchable gallery and adds a weekly inbox habit, so designers browse current icon work instead of rebuilding the same reference folder from scratch.
