Android app icon background colour different when run on real device

I have created an app icon with a blue background colour but when I run the app on a real device the background colour has changed. It works fine on an emulator.

The preview for ic_laucherer.png shows this:

But on my phone it shows as:

Is there any way to stop this?

Went through the same issue so I can help you.

Follow below steps :

  1. Go to File > New > Image Asset.
  2. Now in window look at the Source Asset
  3. Select the Asset Type : Image
  4. Now in path browse your app icon and select next and then finish.

Basically it will create all type of app icons.

I found the problem was in my manifest file. I had the following line:

android:icon="@mipmap/ic_launcher_foreground"

which I changed to:

android:icon="@mipmap/ic_launcher"
