iOS Icon sizes: Descriptions differ in documentations

Hello,

I have 2 questions regarding icon sizes in the latest Air 28 SDK:

1) The release notes for Air 28 state that all icon sizes in the assets.car file should also be included in the application descriptor, except the 1024x1024 version. This includes the 180x180 icon size. However the documentation for icon sizes does not mention a 180x180 icon: Adobe AIR * Application icons. Should it be included anyway?

2) What happened to previous icon sizes that are no longer mentioned in the documentation at https://help.adobe.com/en_US/air/build/WS901d38e593cd1bac1e63e3d129907d2886-8000.html​? For example 66x66, 87x87 and 144x144 have been mentioned in previous versions of the documentation but they no longer appear. Can we assume that they were needed for older iOS versions and that we no longer need them in Air28?

Thanks,

Ruben

Hi,

Thanks for letting us know about this. We are looking into it.

Regarding packaging the icons of sizes 75, 87, 144 and 180, Yes, you need to package these icons in your application.

Hi,

Icon sizes like 180, 87, 144 are mentioned at Adobe AIR * Application icons​. You need to package the icons mentioned on this page using the icon tag in app-xml.

Hi Pravishti,

thanks for your response. You are right, the icons 75, 87, 144 and 180 are mentionend in the first table, apparently I missed this. But they do not appear in the second table under "Icons on iOS". So at least one of the two tables seems outdated. Should we include 75, 87, 144 and 180 in Air 28?

Thanks in advance,

Ruben
