[hrwndr]

Launching icon of my flutter app is not changing properly. Flutter icon is still showing in some places after i changed the launching icon. Icon of the release apk is still flutter icon.

Please add the output of flutter doctor -v.
Did you follow the instructions in https://flutter.io/docs/deployment/android?
Please add the information about where you placed the icon file, the name you used and the configuration changes you made.

Also try flutter clean and run again
and try flutter build apk --release and flutter install and check if any of these fix the issue.

This problem happened to me also with my Xiaomi MI 6 with Android 8.0.0.
To solve it just reboot your phone.

I have the same issue with Redmi 5 Plus - Android 8.1.0. Even after a restart, the small icon is a Flutter one. Even not just that, in the Installed apps section in the settings, the app appears with the Flutter icon.

@daniel-krastev well for me that worked, steps I took: I used this package https://pub.dartlang.org/packages/flutter_launcher_icons to create icons, then the problem occured. Next I used commands which @zoechi proposed (clean and release), but they didnt worked. Then uninstalled application form MI6, rebooted phone, and install app again - and all icons on Android were correct. both debug and release mode.

Clearing app cache fixed my issue

Didn't work on my Mi 9T. I think this is a device issue

@hrwndr can you provide steps to reproduce this issue?

[halilkayaci]

Reboot your phone. It's solved.

[scognito]

It's clearly a phone cache problem. Same app on two device works differently. Even rebooting, clearing cache and such, still old icon. Not a problem for me though

@paulkastel and @daniel-krastev both use a xiaomi phone, like myself. I've deleted all .png files from my project folder, cleaned my cache on my phone, rebooted, reinstalled, rebuilt, flutter cleaned, get and executed flutter_launcher_icons and still I get the older version of my icon. I've been on this for hours and and I'm slowly losing my shit haha.

I had the same issue on iOS. All icons were changed but the one above the app when you can slide to close the apps. Deleting the app and reinstalling did not help. Rebooting the phone worked!
