Android Studio: “libpng warning: iCCP: Not recognizing known sRGB profile that has been edited”

Question

I spent some hours trying to solve this:

app:mergeDebugResources AAPT err(927129865): C:\\Users\\Will\\AndroidStudioProjects\\Splitter2\\app\\build\\i

Answer 1

It's just a warning, which libpng started issuing at version 1.6.0, so you can ignore it.

To get rid of the warning, you need to fix the PNG file that's named in the warning. You can use any one of a number of PNG image editors (ImageMagick, GraphicsMagick, etc.) to remove the offending iCCP chunk. Or you can downgrade your libpng to version 1.5.x.
