Android Studio app won't change its default icon when run on device












0















I've created a simple icon using Image Asset (only changing the background color and the object using clip art) but it won't show on device. I've checked all the places where I store the icon (mipmap, android manifest) and they all show the icon I want. The icon type is adaptive and legacy and I checked the mipmap-anydpi-v26 folder it looks alright.



I've also tried on a new project changing the icon and it worked, but I want to change the icon of the current project I'm working on.



What could be the problem??
