Notification icon size in Android

Tags:

I am trying to get information about the notification icon sizes to create them for my app but I am a little bit lost. I have read a few posts that basically says this:

For MDPI 24 px For HDPI 36 px For XHDPI 48 px For XXHDPI 72 px For XXXHDPI 96 px 

I am trying to create my icons using Photoshop but I don't know the resolution. Can anyone tell what resolution I have to use?

First, swipe down once or twice—depending on your phone—to reveal the Quick Settings menu. Select the gear icon to go to the system settings. Now go to the “Display” settings. Look for “Display Size” or “Screen Zoom.”

What size are Android icons?

On Android devices, launcher icons are generally 96×96, 72×72, 48×48, or 36×36 pixels (depending on the device), however Android recommends your starting artboard size should be 864×864 pixels to allow for easier tweaking.

Can you change icon size Android?

Go to the Home screen and long-press anywhere in the blank area. You'll see menu icons appear at the bottom of the screen. Select the Settings icon on the lower right. In the Home screen settings window, there are two options to adjust icon sizes.

The correct resolutions have been posted already, but I want to point out that notification icons are unecessary for xxxhdpi devices. As per the official Android documentation:

You should not use the xxxhdpi qualifier for UI elements other than the launcher icon.
