O noticed that some apps have a custom icon displayed above the developer name: enter image description here Example
I could not find any place in App Store Connect where to set this, is this something only certain developers have access to, or something I am missing? I own a business account on the App Store, with apps published.
Tried looking in App Store Connect

The custom icon displayed above the developer name in the App Store is called an "App Store icon badge." This badge is a feature available to developers who have enrolled in the Apple Developer Program and have published apps on the App Store.
To set a custom icon badge for your app:
-
Prepare the Icon Badge Image: Create an icon badge image that meets Apple's guidelines and requirements. The icon badge image should be in PNG format with a resolution of 1024x1024 pixels. It should be a square image with transparent background and should only include the icon badge design.
-
Upload the Icon Badge Image: Log in to your App Store Connect account and navigate to the "App Information" section for the app you want to set the custom icon badge for.
-
Scroll down to the "App Store Icon Badge" Section: In the "App Information" section, you should find a subsection labeled "App Store Icon Badge." Here, you'll have the option to upload your custom icon badge image.
-
Upload and Save: Click on the "Choose File" or "Upload" button (depending on the interface) to select the icon badge image file from your computer. After selecting the file, upload it to App Store Connect and save your changes.
-
Review and Submit: Review your changes to ensure that the custom icon badge appears as intended. Once you're satisfied, submit your changes to update the app's information on the App Store.
Please note that the availability of the custom icon badge feature may vary depending on your region and the type of developer account you have (individual or organization). If you cannot find the option to set a custom icon badge in your App Store Connect account, you may want to reach out to Apple Developer Support for further assistance.
