Go into your AndroidManifest.xml file

  • Click on the Application Tab
  • Find the Text Box Labelled "Icon"
  • Then click the "Browse" button at the end of the text box
  • Click the Button Labelled: "Create New Icon..."

  • Create your icon
  • Click Finish
  • Click "Yes to All" if you already have the icon set to something else.

Enjoy using a gui rather then messing with an image editor! Hope this helps!
