Frequently Asked Questions
Why do I need multiple favicon sizes?
Different platforms and devices require different sizes. Small icons for browser tabs, larger ones for home screens and app launchers. Using multiple sizes ensures your icon looks sharp everywhere.
What is an Apple Touch Icon?
Apple Touch Icons are larger favicons used when users add your website to their iOS home screen. They should be 180x180 pixels with no transparency for best results on Apple devices.
Should I use ICO or PNG format?
Use PNG for modern browsers (better quality, smaller files) and ICO only for legacy IE support. Most sites now use multiple PNG files with appropriate link tags in the HTML head.
How do I add a favicon to my website?
Place favicon files in your root directory and add link tags to your HTML head section. Include multiple sizes with appropriate rel attributes (icon, apple-touch-icon) for full compatibility.
