Legacy icon does not show when using adaptive icon

Question

I just converted my app icon to be compatible with android o\'s adaptive icons using the Image Asset Studio in android studio

when I run my project now

Answer 1

I had the same trouble, and solved it by renaming my mipmap-anydpi directory to mipmap-anydpi-v26.

Apparently the ic_launcher.xml file confuses older Android versions, and this hides it from all but O. At any rate, my icons now work on all versions (down to SDK 11, at least).
