Push Notification Icon shown as a white circle

[IbkStorm]

I added the notification icon and set the path in the AndroidManifest.xml but the icon won't show when receiving notifications.
By default the icon was in the drawable folder but I also tried moving it to the mipmap folder and it still didn't work.
I changed your code for my ionic react application but I also made a new ionic angular app and the problem is the same.
I mainly test inside android studio with simulated devices but I also tried it on a physically device and the outcome is the same.

From the documentation:

the push icon should be white pixels on a transparent background.

Does your icon meet these requirements?

[IbkStorm]

Well it should be but when I look closly it might have some gray parts on the edges but it is on a transparent background.
Will it not work if any pixel isn't white? I will try and set it to be completly white on transparent background.

I changed the image to be strictly white pixels on transparent background but the notification icon is still only showen as a white circle.

The line <meta-data android ... was placed at the wrong position in AndroidManifest.xml
Now it works. Thank you for your help.
