Icons in Android O

Question

Running my projects in Android O device made my launcher icons fit inside a rounded background.

All my icons are squared, following the Material Design rules, and I wanna to keep this way for older Android versions. But I also want to endure Android O design rule, filling all that ugly white space, as in the Maps launcher icon, as shown in the image.

There is any solution for this?

Answer 1

Android O introduces adaptive launcher icons, which can display a variety of shapes across different device models
