App icon

Dear all, I'm building my first MacOs app. I've created my app icon and add it to AppIcon folder, but when I'm building the application the icon shows in the dock of the screen with no rounded borders like all the other apps.

I'm attaching here the icon and as you can see it has sharp edges. It is the same way in which it shows on the dock.

Why? Has anybody experienced the same?

Thanks for the support in advance, A.

You have to do the rounding of the corners yourself if you are building an app for macOS. (Except Mac Catalyst iirc) Your entire app icon document should have a size of 1024 x 1024. The icon itself should be 824 x 824 with a corner radius of 185.4 so it looks like you desire. Source: https://forums.developer.apple.com/forums/thread/670578?answerId=739409022#739409022
