Here is my AndroidStudio .desktop file which works from the launcher.

[Desktop Entry]
Version=1.0
Type=Application
Name=Android Studio
Exec="/home/username/Programs/AndroidStudio/bin/studio.sh" %f
Icon=/home/username/Programs/AndroidStudio/bin/studio.png
Categories=Development;IDE;
Terminal=false
StartupNotify=true
StartupWMClass=jetbrains-android-studio
Name[en_GB]=android-studio.desktop

If you are unable to create an entry for Android Studio on the Unity launcher through the Tools > Create Desktop Entry... option, it is possible that you might have a Unity generated jetbrains-android-studio.desktop in your ~/.local/share/applications folder. To confirm, open the file and check for the following entry:

X-UnityGenerated=true

Delete the file and try again.


Alternatively, you can also open Android Studio, click on Configure -> Create Desktop Entry. This should create an entry on the dash:
