This may be a duplicate question:
Basically it should be impossible but there is a possible workaround. You can change your manifest to point at multiple drawables.
Create multiple
activity-aliastags in Manifest for yourMAINlauncher activity and give a different icondrawableto it. You can then choose a particularactivity-aliasvia your code as per your requirement.

Open your android studio as an android application go to res folder inside res folder one folder mipmap. Inside mipmap two folders are showing ic_launcher and ic_launcher_round. Replace with your desired icon of your application and rename your desired icon as ic_launcher.png. Path=Android project>res>mipmap>ic_launcher and ic_launcher_round > put/replace your desired icon in both folder after renaming abc.png to ic_launcher.png and abc.png to ic_launcher_round.png. You can find the location from manifest file from the mentioned line> android:icon="@mipmap/ic_launcher" . Press ctrl+(mouse click) you will reach to same location. Change your desired icon and enjoy.
