You could upload the new icon to your control panel, download the source, and rebuild as an update to the app, which you would then submit to iTunes. Mark

You should just be able to change the images in xCode, they are not linked to the control panel and are only initially downloaded from it. (and help you identify it in control panel) You would need to swap the icons, they are found in the BT_Art Folder Icon_144.png, Icon_114.png, Icon_57.png and Icon_72.png I think you can also drag and drop into the target > project You can still change the icon in teh control panel it just won't do anything unless as Mark says you redownload the package

Hi @Moecklme If you don't want to download the source code again you can change your icons on Xcode. They live in the Bt_Art folder. They come under different sizes. Change these to your new icon and your dev app will change it's icon. Like Mark said you then need to submit to Itunes. Farcat

Both Kittsy and Farcat are correct...you can just swap out the icons. I suggested the control panel route because it would update your icon there, and create the necessary ones all in one step. Either way works though!

I'm trying to update my icon as well. I changed it in the control panel and added to xcode BT_Art folder. Cleaned, Build and Ran the project, it changed on the simulator but not on my iPhone. Do I need to delete the app on my phone and then put it back on??

Trying deleting the app on your iPhone (you won't lose anything), connect your phone and run again. Should work. Farcat
