# Notifications Read below for details on configuring notification [icons](#changing-notification-icon) and [colors](#notification-colors). ## Changing Notification Icon The plugin will use notification_icon from drawable resources if it exists, otherwise the default app icon is used. To set a big icon and small icon for notifications, define them through drawable nodes. Create the required `styles.xml` files and add the icons to the `/res/native/android/res/` folders. The example below uses a png named `ic_silhouette.png`, the app Icon (@mipmap/icon) and sets a base theme. From android version 21 (Lollipop) notifications were changed, needing a separate setting. If you only target Lollipop and above, you don't need to setup both. Thankfully using the version dependant asset selections, we can make one build/apk supporting all target platforms. `/res/native/android/res/values/styles.xml` ``` @mipmap/icon @mipmap/icon ``` and `/res/native/android/res/values-v21/styles.xml` ``` @mipmap/icon @drawable/ic_silhouette ``` ## Notification Colors On Android Lollipop and above you can also set the accent color for the notification by adding a color setting. `/res/native/android/res/values/colors.xml` ``` #FFFFFF00 #FF220022 #FF00FFFF ```
