Android App Icon Size: Mipmap (mdpi to xxxhdpi) Explained

March 6, 2025 · App Asset Generator

Android uses mipmap folders for launcher icons: mdpi (48×48), hdpi (72×72), xhdpi (96×96), xxhdpi (144×144), xxxhdpi (192×192). Providing all of them ensures your icon looks crisp on every device density.

Why multiple sizes?

Different screen densities need different pixel dimensions for the same logical size. One 192×192 asset in xxxhdpi is used for high-density phones; lower densities use the smaller assets. Missing a density can cause blurry or scaled icons.

Round icons

Many launchers show a circular icon. Android supports a separate round icon asset. Generate both standard and round from one image with a tool that outputs the correct mipmap structure—then drop the folders into your Android project.

Use our app icon generator to create all Android mipmap sizes and the round variant in one go.
