bug? in cordova 6.4.0?

For some reason, cordova 6.4.0 copies the android app icons to the wrong directory. After the first build, cordova created new directories:
res/mipmap-*

Manually copy or move:
res/mipmap-*
to:
platforms/android/res/

and rebuild the app.

After adding platform ios, the ios launch screen images have to be copied to the ios project manually:
cp res/screen/ios/* platforms/ios/GrowApp/Images.xcassets//LaunchImage.launchimage/
