MAUI – change AppIcon and SplashScreen for iOS


I attempted growing many apps with MAUI and I at all times efficiently set my app icon and splash display for Android. I am making an attempt the identical factor for iOS and testing with my iPhone SE.
I am utilizing Visible Studio 2022 17.12.4 with .NET 8.

I’m certain it is not my app’s fault: for those who create a brand new MAUI app with .NET 8 default template, simply change the AppIcon shade and construct+deploy for the primary time, the app icon is already improper!
Strive simply this edit on Shade property, clear, rebuild (Launch) and deploy the brand new app:


The app works however I at all times see the default purple .NET MAUI icon.
I do not know what to attempt now; I already tried:

  • debug and launch deploy, uninstalling the app, rebooting the machine and cleansing/recompiling the answer (with each mixture of those actions)
  • this answer (additionally setting totally different Base Sizes and Colours)
  • each step described right here by Microsoft, completely ineffective as traditional
  • merely changing the two default SVG icons (appicon.svg and appiconfg.svg), as steered by Microsoft
  • merely altering the Shade in
  • including a particular PropertyGroup to my .csproj file (see under)
  • disabling HotReload

PropertyGroup added:


    true
    true
    true

If I manually change the colour of the appicon.svg and recompile everyting, I discover the edited photos within the path (MauiApp3MauiApp3objReleasenet8.0-iosios-arm64resizetizerrAssets.xcassetsappicon.appiconset):

enter image description here
…however once more the deployed app has the default purple icon!

I discovered on-line many associated posts however I could not discover any working answer:
