## What it is
A macOS application that extracts all artwork and emoji symbols from iOS (via the iPhone Simulator) into PNG files, and can generate glossy button PNGs. It can also extract artwork from App Store IPAs for educational purposes.

## Use cases
- extract iOS system artwork icons as png files
- export emoji symbols from iOS to images
- get retina @2x assets from the iPhone simulator
- generate glossy button png images
- extract artwork from downloaded App Store apps

## When to choose
- you need official iOS system icons or emoji artwork for design reference on macOS
- you want to inspect assets inside App Store apps for educational purposes

## When to avoid
- you need a maintained tool - the last release was in 2018 and it depends on old simulator versions
- you are on Windows or Linux - it requires macOS and the iOS Simulator
- you want to extract from modern iOS versions not supported by the tool
