Android App Icon

[DavidM29]

Can I use adaptive icons, generated in android studio, in uno platform as android launcher icon?
I generated the icons and moved them over to Resources:

But I get this error: resource mipmap/ic_launcher_foreground (aka ge.bit.businessassistantpos:mipmap/ic_launcher_foreground) not found.

This particular error can be fixed by removing mimmap-anydpi-v26 folder, I guess the error was because it does not contain ic_launcher_foreground.

However, the problem now is that launcher icon on android is being overriden by icons in Uno Assets, if I delete those the project does not get built anymore, is there a way around this?

Hey @DavidM29,

thank you for your question. For this you would need to disable Resizetizer asset generation, I don't think we currently have a direct way to do this with Uno.Sdk. I have opened an issue for this, to track more details. In the meantime, what you can do is to disable implicit packages <DisableImplicitUnoPackages>true</DisableImplicitUnoPackages> and add manually the required ones, without Uno.Resizetizer and it should work. You can find more details about this here. Let me know if this helps!

Thanks @morning4coffe-dev, I will try this as soon as I get the chance.

Hello again @morning4coffe-dev,
I was able to generate icons in Package.appxmanifest Visual Assets and I am using those as an app icon on windows.

My goal is to do the same thing on android by generating icons in android studio and then moving them into my project, it is possible in MAUI according to this article.

Why does specifying platform specific icons work on windows and not android?
Could I be doing something wrong and resizetizer is not actually the issue?
