Also, We need to add the line shown below to the AndroidManifest.xml file under the android/app/src/main directory. Make an app icon from Android Asset Studio with a circle shape and name ic_launcher_round.ĭownload this, unzip and copy the res directory contents of this to the res directory under our project. The latest version of React native also supports a circle icon for each icon size. Now the icon is set to your React Native Android App. sudo cp -r Downloads/AppIcon/res/* /var/www/html/AwesomeProject/android/app/src/main/res/ The following command will take care of it. Copy res directory to our React-Native projectĬopy the items in the res directory under AppIcon to the res directory in your project. The items inside res have to be copied to our react-native project in the next step. We can see a directory named res under AppIcon.

Note: Windows/Mac users can unzip the zip file graphically. Sudo unzip /Downloads /ic_launcher.zip -d AppIcon If we are using a Linux system, unzip it using the below command. The zip file we downloaded will be there in the Downloads directory of your system. We can see the various sizes from Android Asset Studio itself by clicking SEE ALL under our icon preview.Īfter we customize our icon, download the zip file ic_launcher.zip by clicking the download button on the top right. The Android app icon we are making is portable for all devices. After all, we can see an option to set the name. We can customize our app icon as we like from here. If we need an effect for our icon, we can also set it. If the image we uploaded is a png with a transparent background, no shape option will make the app icon the shape of the image you uploaded. The available shapes are Square, Circle, Tall rect, and Wide rect. Now we can select the shape of our app icon from the menu. Then select the icon image we created in the previous step from our local system. Select the Image tab in the foreground option. This will be the page we see after opening the above URL.
