The icon shown remains the default one provided by Flutter about flutter_launcher_icons HOT 3 CLOSED

Hello! Glad your issue has been solved.

From the Flutter documentation:

When you run flutter packages get (‘Packages Get’ in IntelliJ) for the first time after adding a package, Flutter saves the concrete package version found in the pubspec.lock lockfile. This ensures that you get the same version again if you, or another developer on your team, run flutter packages get.

So that command only retrieves all of the packages in your pubspec.yaml.

The second command I've included in the guide and this command actually runs Flutter Launcher Icons and will provide feedback on whats happening in the terminal it's executed from.

To my knowledge there's no difference between

flutter packages pub run flutter_launcher_icons:main

or

flutter pub pub run flutter_launcher_icons:main

I used to have the second command in the guide but wasn't never a fan of having to call pub twice which I thought was a bit strange.

Solved by running flutter pub pub run flutter_launcher_icons:main.

Shouldn't the package do this automatically when I click Packages get?

Yes, I've seen it in the guide, but I thought that I would need to execute it if I didn't have a pubspec.yaml or a flutter_launcher_icons.yaml.

Just after watching the video example I understood that, being also new to Flutter.

I would suggest to make it more clear in the guide this step.
