Publishing on google play corona icon?

Getting Started Newbie Questions
#1

So, I have submitted my app to the google play store, but I have noticed a pretty big error on my part.

When I download the app, the corona sdk logo is the app icon…

I don’t know how this would have happened. I removed all corona images from the project folder and I have plenty sized images of my icon.

I have the following…

Icon-60.png

Icon-60@2x.png

Icon-60@3x.png

Icon-72.png

Icon-72@2x.png

Icon-76.png

Icon-76@2x.png

Icon-Small-40.png

Icon-Small-40@2x.png

Icon-Small-50.png

Icon-Small-50@2x.png

Icon-120.png

Icon-Small.png (29 x 29)

Icon-Small@2x.png

Icon-Small@3x.png

Icon.png (57 x 57)

Icon@2x.png

These were all the icon images that come with a new corona project when you create one, so I figured I would use all the same names and just apply my images to them.

Everything seems fine for the apple store anyone know why this would happen on google play?

Those are the iOS Icons.

You need the Android icons for Google Play.

If only there were a tool that would produce starter icons for you and a well set up project…

The icon names are:

Icon-hdpi.png Icon-ldpi.png Icon-xhdpi.png Icon-xxhdpi.png Icon-xxxhdpi.png

I don’t remember the resolutions off the top of my head, but then that is why I made EAT Lean.

Note: I’ll give you one last bit of free advice.  You can always generate the icons you need using one of MANY site.  I like this one:  http://icon.angrymarmot.org/

If you don’t include the Android icons, we create a default one for you. I think Android has to have an icon. On iOS they allow a blank icon during development. The sizes are all listed here:

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

But as Ed said, using a generator saves you a lot of work.

As I said on another site, http://icon.angrymarmot.org/ is a great service, but it hasn’t been kept up-to-date.

For example, it doesn’t create Icon-167.png, and perhaps others.

One more thing - the icons required are out-of-date in this forum thread. Look for a current thread that lists them all.
