Android Adaptive Icons

Android allows us to create adaptive icons (various shapes for one icon for different devices) for:
  • launcher icons
  • shortcuts
  • Setting app
  • sharing dialogs
  • overview screen
You have to provide the following layers 108x108 dp:
  • top mask (circle, squircle, rounded square, square) provided by device OEM (e.g. Samsung)
  • foreground layer 72x72 dp should be visible in the mask viewport
  • background layer

The edge 18 dp are reserved for system's special effects.

Use Android Studio 3.0 Asset Studio to create these adaptive icons.
