FAQ
Why is maskable icon different from normal 512 icon?
Maskable icons may be cropped by launcher masks, so they need extra safe-area space.
Should I use transparent or solid background?
Solid background is usually more stable for maskable launcher rendering.
How can I tell content is too close to edge?
If major text or logo touches preview boundary, switch to Safe mode and recheck.
