Icon

Getting Started Newbie Questions
#1

Since I don’t know how to put my image for my app icon can I use the corona logo because that is what is on my app now . I tried to follow the documentation on this website but I can’t get it so can I use the logo because that is the current icon ?

Be sure not to publish an app with the Corona icon.

All you need to know about icons is here:

https://docs.coronalabs.com/daily/guide/distribution/buildSettings/index.html#custom-app-icons

You can use this tool to generate your icons from a single source image:

I already got my icon

huh?  You just said you didn’t know how to do this.

If so, what are the dimensions of that icon?  Is it just one file?  If so, that isn’t going to do it.  You need multiple resolutions and your ‘base’ icon (used to produce/generate the rest) should typically be 1024x1024 so you can downscale it for the others.
