There is the Images.xcassets file in my WatchKit App. As soon as I put any icon in that asset build failed with the error message: "The app icon set named "AppIcon" did not have any applicable content."

This is an easy method to generate your WatchKit icons, which worked well for me:

  • Upload a source image to http://makeappicon.com
  • Go to Images.xcassets in the WatchKit app
  • Right click on the pane which includes AppIcon, select "Import...", and choose the watchkit folder that makeappicon.com generated for you
