If we add a custom image will it be previewed when app downloaded ? > So if i add a image from my pc and upload as a background so later after i added it and downloaded that app the image is not coming ! So it is a very big issue, so if i replace it with a google link some random ones, so it will be previewing after downloading ? ---

You should see images when you download or live test the app. If you’re missing images on Android download, that’s a bug caused by renaming images. You’ll need to reupliad the images (already renamed) to work around it. ---

Any image you add to your project as `asset` will be available with the downloaded app. You can use the image file added to your project as the image for the screen or component or you can use any URL of an image and it will be loaded. Google images may not work if used from a shared Google drive link. ---
