When it comes to creating flat icons, a simple vector drawing tool is more useful than a professional image editor that is focused on pixel drawing. FlatIconMaker provides you with the necessary tools for drawing flat icons, for websites or mobile apps. It allows you to draw, modify or align your shapes and perform other actions, without any effort, so you can make your icons look like they were created by a professional.

The software is free to try, with some limitations. It works on Windows XP and all later editions, up to Windows 8 and it doesn't require any additional tools or services. Installing FlatIconMaker is a simple procedure, which can be completed in a matter of seconds.

Due to its clean and efficient user interface, FlatIconMaker is easier to use than other similar programs. You may create new icons from scratch or import existing ones and modify them. Drawing and editing icons can be done in an editing area, on the main user interface and you can choose different drawing tools, select colors and create layers on different panels, which can be moved and resized independently from the main window.

The available tools can be used to create rectangles and circles, draw custom shapes, slice them, clone, fill the shapes with colors and more. Also, the software places a series of preset shapes at your disposal, which you can insert just by double clicking them. Inserted or drawn shapes can be modified by clicking and dragging their edges or certain anchor points on those edges.

Selected shapes can be moved forwards or backwards, which is particularly useful if you have several overlapping objects. Also, the possibility of working on layers is a clear advantage, which can make your work significantly easier. Besides placing shapes one on top of another, you can also select several items and click different options to align them. When your work is complete, you can export your icon in ICO, PNG, BMP, JPG or other formats.

Pros

FlatIconMaker places various drawing and editing tools at your disposal. It allows you to align shapes, move them forwards or backwards and place them on different layers. The software's controls are well arranged and easy to understand.

Cons

You can't export your work while using the trial version. Creating flat icons with FlatIconMaker can give any mobile app or website a professional look.
