I might be blind, but I don't seem to see any reference on how to change the app icon that I am developing. It shows on my watch as a fitbit logo. Any hints?

If you look at the build messages, you will see this:

  • There is no app icon present in this project. To set an app icon, add a 80x80 PNG file named resources/icon.png to your project.

Just upload the file to the resources folder and name it icon.png and it should work.

The icon image has to be called icon.png and you have to place it in the resources file. Also, the icon needs to be 80X80.

This is what I did and it does work, though I think it's an anachronism. The icon used to show up in various places, but now screenshots and higher resolution images are used.
