Android App not showing Launcher Icon when downloaded from Play Store - padding also shows up

Question

i have researched my problem but there are very conflicting answers regarding the issue.

My App has been approved by Google and is live.

However it is different.

When i use the .apk from my PC on my Phone everything works as intended.

Should i use:

android:icon="@mipmap/ic_launcher"

or

android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher"

in my androidmanifest.xml?

I also use

    <dimen name="activity_horizontal_margin">0dp</dimen>
    <dimen name="activity_vertical_margin">0dp</dimen>

in the dimens.xml

but the blue borders and app title do still show when i download it from the Play Store.

Thanks for all the help i can get!

Answer 1

Its really weird that you are having different result when downloading from Google Play. Check that you uploaded the same version as the one you are using locally.

And in android:icon you should use @mipmap
