I can get the icon I want on the Home screen to launch my app. But when I tap Settings and then Applications, and scroll to my app, I see he green Android robot.

How do I get the same icon like I use for the Home page?

I'm using Xamarin Forms and Visual Studio 19 Community Edition. The phone I'm testing with is Android 6.

Thanks for any help.

    https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/xamarin/android/deploy-test/release-prep/?tabs=windows has the answer I used - the setting in the AssemblyInfo.cs file to set the icon.

    Thank you for responding to my question. Yes, I have uninstalled the app and have the problem.

    Thank you again for addressing my issue. I'm not sure what you mean by a 'demo'. I can upload the APK to my website so that you can see for yourself. Or I could upload it to the Android Play Store.
