Removing the green background for android icon-CodePudding

I'm new to android development and just created my first app. I selected my app icon, but don't know why the background of the image I saved, it's showing green whereas the original image doesn't have that. Is there any way that I can remove the green background.

The above is the image after selecting it in android studio.

How can I remove the green background?

Thanks in advance

If you replaced the ic_launcher_foreground.xml to change the icon, you also need to remove the third line in the ic_launcher.xml and/or the ic_launcher_round.xml below.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<adaptive-icon xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
    <background android:drawable="@drawable/ic_launcher_background" />
    <foreground android:drawable="@drawable/ic_launcher_foreground" />
</adaptive-icon>

In any case, what you see is the ic_launcher_background.xml in /res/drawable/. Delete it, see what breaks and repair it by removing the call to the deleted xml.

code structure

 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<adaptive-icon xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
    <background android:drawable="@color/ic_launcher_background"/> // this is background color 
    <foreground android:drawable="@mipmap/ic_launcher_foreground"/>
</adaptive-icon>

color resource found in values/ic_launcher_background.xml in your project dir

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources>
    <color name="ic_launcher_background">#00FF00</color> // change color using(#) like : #000000(black)
</resources>

I mentioned black color code, you try to change color according to your icon.

or use transparent color like this

<color name="ic_launcher_background">#0000ffff</color> // transparent background color
