[BUG] Android: Black app launcher icon

[Navid-Rahman]

I'm using flutter_launcher_icons v0.14.0 to generate app icons for both Android and iOS. Despite providing a colored logo, the generated app icons are black in Android. But in iOS this is working fine. The logo is correctly formatted as a PNG file, and I've set the necessary configuration in pubspec.yaml, but the output remains incorrect.

dev_dependencies:
  flutter_test:
    sdk: flutter
  flutter_lints: ^2.0.0
  flutter_launcher_icons: ^0.14.0

flutter_launcher_icons:
  android: "launcher_icon"
  ios: true
  remove_alpha_ios: true
  image_path: "assets/logo/logo.png"
  min_sdk_android: 21

Flutter Doctor result:

Do you know if this is a bug from the latest update? Or am I doing something wrong?

Icon is a black box?

[Navid-Rahman]

On Android, the app icon is displaying incorrectly; as you can see in the screenshot. However, on iOS, the correct app icon is shown.

Facing the same issue. Not sure about IOS but I have a black icon in android.

Does this work fine for v0.13.1?

What Android SDK version are you using?

[Navid-Rahman]

I noticed an inconsistency between the documentation and the example videos [Though the video is using v0.0.1] regarding the configuration for flutter_launcher_icons. In the example videos, the configuration is shown under flutter_icons, but the official documentation uses flutter_launcher_icons. The configuration didn't work until I switched it to flutter_icons, as mentioned in the videos.

On the video the requirements are mentioned under, flutter_icons:

The video suggestion worked fine for me.

I haven't tested this with version 0.13.1 specifically. However, I did use version 0.13.1 in one of my projects a few days ago and did not encounter any issues at that time.

@MarkOSullivan94 I found the issue in my case, version 1.14.0 is creating a folder mipmap-anydpi-v26 in res folder which contains some sort of xml files, deleting that folder fixed this for me.

Both flutter_icons and flutter_launcher_icons should work, did you do a flutter clean before flutter pub get?

Yupp. I tried that also. I even uninstalled the app and then again ran the program.

I degraded the package version to this flutter_launcher_icons: "^0.13.1" Worked like a charm

Are we sure this issue should be closed? I think I just encountered this glitch. As suggested by @ShuvamJaswal, deleting the mipmap-anydpi-v26 resolved the problem, but it seems like flutter_launcher_icons v0.14.1 is still generating output that breaks the launcher icon on at least some Android devices.

Agree with it, issue still present on Android (I've tried 12 and 14, both have the issue) on 0.14.0 and 0.14.1

Which resolution should we use for this image? **image_path: "assets/logo/logo.png"**

After last update, my icon become really small. I didnt change anything, same image, just update the package. With the old version, the icon was twice as large!

i had this exact same problem with 1.14.1 and found the same answer here : https://stackoverflow.com/questions/79065420/suspected-flutter-launcher-icons-0-14-1-causing-fatal-exception-wmshell-splashw

another issue is since i fixed it now my app icon is stuck with a white outline. i am unsure what caused this but it was not the case before having to delete that folder.

I deleted the mipmap-anydpi-v26 folder that contained an xml file in android/app/src/main/res folder
