Frequently Asked Questions
A favicon (short for "favorite icon") is a small icon associated with a particular website or webpage. It is displayed in your web browser's tab, in your bookmarks list, and in history archives to help users easily identify your site visually.
Extract the downloaded ZIP file and upload all the files directly to the root directory (public_html) of your website via FTP or File Manager. Then, copy the provided HTML code snippet inside the instructions.txt file and paste it inside the <head> tag of your website's HTML pages.
Modern devices have vastly different screen resolutions. A 16x16 icon is fine for a desktop browser tab, but if an iPhone user saves your website to their home screen, Apple requires a 180x180 high-res icon. Android devices look for 192x192 and 512x512 icons via the Web Manifest. The ZIP package covers all these modern standards.
