Crappy icon on Android

Does anyone recognize this issue (see image)?

My icon has a white background and then all looks fine.

I suspect you have changed a universal setting in your device that effects the way app icons appear. Square shaped and background color?

Can't find any, but I'm on a slightly obscure OS (https://e.foundation/e-os/) so probably they have made some choices like that. Thanks!

I think e os is running on very outdated Android version. So it might be because older version do not handle transparent icon well.

Also e/os has some modification on icon. It is possible they set the background to the boarder color of the icon, hence hiding the tail.

I would suggest to try a different launcher/icon pack see if the issue persist.

/e/ os seems to be running Android 12, which I believe is the latest?

But yes, a different launcher solves the issue!

That is not normal. Do you have some sort of contrast setting turned on in android?

I'm pretty sure I don't. What is different in my case? The background color of the icon?
