Here is another solution which I feel is more sensible for those working on Android Studio    Expand the project root folder in the Project View Right Click on the app folder In the Context Menu go to New- Image Asset In the pop up that appears select the the new logo you would like to have image clip art text   If you were selecting the image radio button  as is the default choice   if you clicked on the 3-buttons to show the path tree to locate your  png image file  most probably you might not be seeing it  so drag it from the Windows Explorer  if Windows  and drop it in the tree  and it will appear and ready for being selected    That is it  You have a new logo for you app now

Look in the application s AndroidManifest xml file for the  lt application gt  tag   This application tag has an android icon attribute  which is usually  drawable ic launcher  The value here is the name of the launcher icon file  If the value is  drawable ic launcher  then the name of the icon is ic launcher png   Find this icon in your resource folders  res mipmap-mdpi  res mipmap-hdpi  etc   and replace it   A note on mipmap resources  If your launcher icon is currently in drawable folders such as res drawable-hdpi  you should move them to the mipmap equivalents  e g  res mipmap-hdpi   Android will better preserve the resolution of drawables in the mipmap folder for display in launcher applications   Android Studio note  If you are using Android Studio you can let studio place the drawables in the correct place for you  Simply right click on your application module and click New -  Image Asset   For the icon type select either  Launcher Icons  Legacy Only   for flat PNG files or  Launcher Icons  Adaptive and Legacy   if you also want to generate an adaptive icon for API 26  devices
