Do you all know about the Assets.car requirement in iOS 11? Instead of 
including individual icons (which you have to do to support older iOS), you now 
include an Assets.car file, that has all of the icon sizes. It would be an 
included file.

It is possible to make the file using Xcode, but I found that some icon sizes 
were being left out, and Apple rejects apps like that. Fortunately someone made 
an online tool, you give it your 1024x1024 icon, it gives you back the 
Assets.car file:

It also makes the needed Android icons.
