android - Why is my smallIcon for Notifications always greyed out? -
i tried making small icon 16x16, gray-scaled, nothing gray , white (the gray color being hex
value 616161), create silhouette of application icon.
yet no matter shows white/gray square in notifications. doing wrong?
(my min api
21, assuming relevant)
follow this link
first let’s understand android documentation follows
“update or remove assets involve color. system ignores non-alpha channels in action icons , in main notification icon. should assume these icons alpha-only. system draws notification icons in white , action icons in dark gray.”
now easy miss , have seen many apps live in app store thousands of users haven’t followed mentioned guidelines.
so let me explain in detail how can convert notification icon android friendly 1 few clicks.
in favourite image editor open icon file. convert parts of image don’t want show transparent pixels. colors , non transparent pixels displayed in white. let go through example.
you can ask designer or use tool generate icon
