You can easily create an Android Studio shortcut by creating an desktop entry using the following the steps below.
In this guide, my Android Studio is installed in /opt/android-studio folder. Your folder location may differ.
1. Open terminal and type
cd ~/.local/share/applications
2. Create a .desktop file using your favorite text editor
nano android-studio.desktop
3. My .desktop file looks like this
[Desktop Entry] Version=1.0 Type=Application Name=Android Studio Icon=/opt/android-studio/bin/studio.png Exec="/opt/android-studio/bin/studio.sh" %f Categories=Development;IDE; Terminal=false StartupWMClass=jetbrains-android-studio
As a template for desktop entry you can use this snippet
[Desktop Entry] Version=1.0 Type=Application Name=<APPLICATION NAME> Icon=<LOCATION/ICON.PNG> Exec="<LOCATION/APP>" %f Categories=Development;IDE; Terminal=false
The end result will be like this
