Android Notification Icon Is A White Circle


Answer :

You must use a notification icon with no background. Android will add the circle background.

You can set background color with

.setColor(context.getResources().getColor(R.color.colorPrimary))

to match your app indentity.

Icon inside will remain white and circle will get the color you defined.

If your compileSDKversion is above 20 then notification icon should be a white-on-transparent background image. Otherwise the image will be rendered as a white colored image.

Please go through the below link too for guidelines to create the icon

and also the notification icon generator.

It seems to be a problem of cache during compilation ... The first image I was using was bad (fully colored), so I think my compilator created somekind of cache on the filename.

I work on Windows and did this : uninstall the app from my phone, invalidate all cache from Android sudio => at re-compilation, the icon was OK.
