I followed the recommended processes for adding images to my app, and it is being displayed correctly on the layout preview, but not at all on the app. I have vector assets, webp, png images, but none are being displayed.

The project is too big to put here in its entirety, but please ask for any snippets that could help you solve the issue. I’ve tried searching the web and asking LLMs and neither could help, so please help me, fellow humans.

        Ooh it’s easy. The layout in android studio is light, on the device is dark. Switch to light and they’ll pop up

        On the XML icon you have co change the color or apply a different color based light/dark

        If not, you can share more like icon XML and stuff

          Unfortunately switching the theme to light didn’t work, the images aren’t being displayed at all.
