@BoltLiu Android doesn't automatically apply a mask to icons for you like iOS does. You have to make the decision of how your icon should look before running ionic cordova resources, which just crops/resizes. Android has changed the look and feel of its icons drastically through the years, and we don't assume what you want.

Round the corners to your own desire and place the icon in resources/android/icon.png. Then, run it again.

Does this mean that ionic cordova resources will not auto generate both original and rounded versions of the app icon?

[imhoffd]

It does not. There are no plans to improve ionic cordova resources at this time.
