The icon tag is ignored entirely if you're not using the CLI, and it's only a CLI thing. The problem I have with this right now is that it doesn't provide a good solution to this problem, since as you stated earlier, you won't get through App Store review on iOS, and Android requires numerous icons when you submit your app anyway. This stupid anti-feature is what's preventing the platforms from being treated as build artifacts. > Android and > iOS both do a pretty good job at resizing at runtime if only one large icon > is present (although you won't get through app-store review). > I disagree about Android doing a good job. We just don't notice it because we happen to have stupidly high quality template icons and we mostly test on hdpi and xhdpi devices. I'm sure if I ran this on an mdpi or ldpi device, the icon would be all distorted. > > > > On Thu, Jun 19, 2014 at 5:17 PM, Joe Bowser <bows...@gmail.com> wrote: > >> So, it resizes the icon?
