Galaxy S7 Nougat Full Icons

I wanted to ask how to change the app icon of my app on a Galaxy S7 running on Android Nougat (see attached screenshot) to fill the whole icon space. Is there a way to do this?

EDIT: I think it's because these apps have square icons and mine is circular. Is there a way to make it square for Galaxy S7 Nougat devices and for all others round?

My app's icon and the icon of another App from Google Play

What is the difference between screen zoom and font size?

As mentioned above, screen zoom is different from font size. Actually, it solves the problem that font size cannot handle. Font size only can affect the size of “adjustable” text. But unfortunately, size of some texts in Android is not adjustable through font size, including, notifications, lock screen text.

You can disable this by adding a meta-data element to your manifest:

<application>
    <meta-data android:name="com.samsung.android.icon_container.has_icon_container" android:value="true"/>
</application>

This solution is only for user's end:

Go to settings -> display -> icon frames -> icon only. This should change the icons into full size icons.
