To generate the icons ( and optional splashscreens) for your Capacitor application, you can now use the cordova-res package as well. You should have at least two because one of them will be the default icon of our app.
#IONIC COPY AN APP AND RENAME IT INSTALL#
Npm install we need some icons to test this functionality, go ahead and create icons with your favourite image editing tool (I usually use Canva to easily create images) and use the size 1024×1024.
Once the app is ready we can add our iOS platform and then install the App icon plugin: ionic start capacitorIcon blank -type=angular -capacitor Now we begin by creating a blank new Ionic application with Capacitor enabled. If you haven’t used Ionic before, now is the time to set up your environment and install the Ionic CLI. However, since Capacitor treats native projects as part of your project’s code which is also checked in to source control, you can easily apply any kind of changes to your native projects to enable native functionalities.
To change your icon you need to apply changes to your native iOS project, which was always challenging with Cordova and required some magic to make it work ( free frustration included). In this tutorial we will implement the functionality to switch your app icon on iOS using one of the Capacitor community plugins, created by John Borges, a member of our community! You have heard that Capacitor makes it easy to access native device functionality with a simplified API - but does it really work for core native functionalities like changing the app icon on your home screen? Simon also created the Practical Ionic book, a guide to building real world Ionic applications with Capacitor and Firebase. This is a guest post from Simon Grimm, Ionic Insider and educator at the Ionic Academy.
