2,086 PointsAh perfect thanks Les, I completely missed the fact that the icon in the screenshot is a PNG file. The reason it won't let you drag it to universal is, well, simply because it's a PNG. The universal icon set slot takes a PDF type file as from that it can automatically generate @1x, @2x and @3x size icons for each different screen size without worry of the images stretching. As PNG files are one static size it isn't viable for Swift to use one image to cover three different sizes and so this is why you are having this problem. The best thing to do is to recreate the PNG icons you have in PDF form and you should find that you can then drag them in to the universal slot.
Hope this helps!
