I have recently developed a set of icons for my ios app using https://makeappicon.com. This provides a folder of appropriately sized images. I then have dragged each of these images into the appropriate slot in the AppIcon section in Assets.xcassets. The icon shows up fine in on my phone screen but not in the app switcher (see circled in image). There are no errors showing.
I have: - Cleaned build folder and rebuilt - I have restarted my iPhone - I have manually placed all the images in the slots - I have also tried replacing the original AppIcon folder with the one provided by make appicon
All to no effect. Be grateful for any suggestions.
There can be a number of reasons behind apps disappearing from the iPhone, right from a minor glitch to the app being restricted. Since iPhone allows a number of ways to hide apps, you might not see some app icons on your Home Screen. How do I find a missing app icon?
Open the App Switcher to quickly switch from one open app to another on your iPhone. When you switch back, you can pick up right where you left off. On an iPhone with Face ID: Swipe up from the bottom of the screen, then pause in the center of the screen. On an iPhone with a Home button: Double-click the Home button.
If you’re able to fetch the app through Spotlight Search and App library but can’t seem to locate its icon, it’s possible that you might have hidden the Home Screen page containing that icon. To unhide your Home Screen, tap and hold anywhere on the empty space on your Home Screen. Now tap on the dots at the bottom to edit your Home Screen pages.
Now slide the "Slide to Power Off" to turn off the iPhone. Again long press the Power button in order to restart the device. Now open Settings app. You should probably see all your apps list and your "apps missing from Settings" will be solved.
Uninstall App → Restart Device → Install App
