Fix

The following steps worked for me.

you will need to create two images manually.

Step 1

Create a 432x432 .png file. Then save it as "icon-background.png". you may decide to make the color transparent or not

In my case, I created a white image since I need a white background for my icon and I went for the 432x432 dimension.

Step 2

Create another 432x432 .png file and save it as "icon-foreground.png".

In this case, you will be mindful of the color of the background you use in the first image.

Step 3

put the two images created above into <Project Directory>/resources/android/

Step 4

cordova-res ios --skip-config --copy
cordova-res android --skip-config --copy

Or

cordova-res android --skip-config --copy --type icon
