I’m including an Icon-xxhdpi.png file in my Android projects for “ultra-hi-res screens”, but after analysing the APK built with Corona I don’t see a drawable-xxhdpi directory in the /res directory.
I don’t have a Nexus 10 or other device that supports this, but I’m assuming that the xxhdpi icon will never be used unless it’s in the proper place in the /res directory.
Corona Simulator builds do not currently support xxhdpi icons. Corona only supports the icons documented here…

But that said, since you are using Corona Enterprise, you can easily add xxhdpi icon support by adding that icon to the appropriate “res” directory. You have full control over this.
Also note that image files “Icon-hdpi.png”, “Icon-xhdpi.png”, etc. are not used by Corona Enterprise builds. Those files are only supported by Corona Simulator builds. When using Corona Enterprise, you are really using the Android SDK build system and therefore you are expected to set up your application project according to Google’s documentation. Google documents how to set up your “launcher” icons here…

Sorry for being a bit unclear.
I’m aware that as an Enterprise user I can fix this. I just wanted to give a heads-up that the Simulator builds didn’t support xxhdpi in case it had been overlooked.
I saw a few Pro users on the forum including the xxhdpi icon in their builds, probably unaware that it’s not used on the device at the moment.
Sorry for misunderstanding. Yeah, we’ll add xxhdpi app icon support later. Right now, we have other commitments that have to be done first. But thanks for bringing this up.
Thank you, this helped me out a lot.
