• That site does not look like it supports adaptive launcher icons, which have been standard on Android since 8.0 or 8.1. – CommonsWare Commented Oct 13, 2022 at 23:26

Try using this website to generate icons before uploading the image here make sure your icon doesn't have any transparent padding. I've used this website multiple times works perfectly.

Turns out the issue is because the icon I'm using has transparent background. IOS did add white bg by default and handled it, android handled it by rapping the icon with white padding also.

Fixed after changing background to be white.
