site.webmanifest.A favicon (short for favorite icon) is a small icon associated with a website, typically displayed in browser tabs, bookmarks, and search results. It helps with brand recognition and improves user experience.
Favicons appear in browser tabs, bookmarks, search results, browser history, and mobile home screens when a website is saved. They help users identify and navigate websites more easily.
For 2026, the recommended favicon sizes include: 16x16 (legacy browsers), 32x32 (modern browsers), 180x180 (iOS home screen), 192x192 (Android home screen), and 512x512 (PWA splash screens).
