Notification icon does not change dynamically in Android

[alifja]

Environment

• React Native version: 0.76.9
• react-native-app-icon-changer version: 1.3.2
• Platform: Android

Description

I'm using the react-native-app-icon-changer library to dynamically change my app's icon. The functionality for changing the app icon itself works correctly. However, the notification icon (the small icon that appears in the status bar for new notifications) does not update to reflect the new icon.

This behavior occurs on Android only and seems to be independent of the app icon change. The notification icon remains the default icon specified in the app's manifest, even after the main app icon has been successfully updated.

Expected Behavior

When the app icon is changed dynamically using the library, the notification icon should also update to match the newly selected icon.

Actual Behavior

The app icon changes as expected, but the notification icon does not update and remains the default icon.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Integrate react-native-app-icon-changer into a React Native project.
2. Set up multiple app icons as per the library's documentation.
3. Implement a feature to dynamically change the app icon.
4. Send a push notification to the device.

This issue is related to the device cache. As far as I know, there isn’t much you can do about it except closing and reopening the mobile device, which should clear the cache.
