Application icon does not appear after installing android app

I am developing an android app and when I install the app on android phone, the application icon does not appears in application section. But it appears in application manager and I can make uninstallation. After googling, some said I need to rebuild my project and to make sure the app icon in drawable resource. I already tried for this solution and the problem is still occurring. The manifest file I created is as follow:

<application
    android:allowBackup="true"
    android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher"
    android:label="@string/app_name"
    android:theme="@style/AppTheme">
    <activity
        android:name=".MyActivity"
        android:label="@string/app_name" >
        <intent-filter>
            <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
            <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
            <action android:name="android.intent.action.view" />
            <data android:scheme="geo" />
        </intent-filter>
    </activity>
</application>

Why are my app icons not showing Android?

Icons Disappear from App LauncherIf you haven't tried to restart the device yet, give that a try. Press and hold the “Power” button, then select “Restart“. In many cases, the Home screen will refresh and the icon(s) will return.

Why is an app installed but not showing?

Check If the Missing Apps Are Hidden Slide outward the interface with your two fingers on the home screen. Then you will see the hidden apps in the interface. Tap on the “Add” button to see all the installed apps. Uncheck the app you don't want to hide and then confirm the change.

I believe geo scheme cannot be used with Launcher. I can't find any documentation but in this tutorial they suggest to use with default category.

Please try to move your location related code to another activity and move scheme=geo filter to that one.
