2. Android Adaptive Icon
The Android adaptive app icon is visible on the home screen of your Android device. Android also calls this icon the launcher icon. The adaptive icon is visible on devices with Android 8 or higher. On Android devices, each launcher displays the app icons differently. Some launchers place the icons on square backgrounds, while others fit the icons into a round shape. Adaptive icons have been introduced to make all icons look more consistent in terms of size and shape.
This new type of icons has a specific safe zone that is always displayed to accommodate all these different icon types. Flip supports adaptive icons to make your app icon look perfect on all devices and Android versions.
