I am creating a "HelloWorld 2013" app in Visual Studio 2012 that deployes to my on-premises developer site. The app deploys to the site with no problems.
My goal is to change the app icon (for example, the icon that displays in Site Contents).
There appears to be 2 places in my project to spcify the app icon image neither of which appear to make a difference.
1) project properties > Application > Icon and manifest > Icon
2) Appmanifest.xml > Icon
The picture I am selecting for the icon is 96x96px .png or .ico (as required) and located in the images folder of my project.
1) What is the difference between setting the icon in these 2 locations?
2) What else should I change so that my specified image shows as the icon for the app?
NB Going on the premise that there is a relatively uninvolved way to change an app icon without going through custom branding.
Relevant:
Basically my same question but unanswered
Very similar to my question but the only resolution is "I have got the icon displaying for app"
