Granted: this is because weask you to not declare favicon.ico.iOS devices look for files such as apple-touch-icon-144x144.png at the root of the web site,as described by Apple.This issue can be mitigated by declaring the icons in the HTML code (this is necessary for Android anyway),but following Apple conventions is probably the best move.By default, Internet Explorer 11 looks for browserconfig.xml at the root of the web site.Several services, such as Yandex,look for favicon.ico in the root directory.OkFavicon compressionRealFaviconGenerator can compress the generated pictures. You usually get a 50%-80% compression rate. Not bad!The compression works well on all tested platforms. Even better!The compression is lossy, meaning you might notice differences between the original and compressed pictures.Yet the differences are (supposed to be) minimal:Uncompressed picture (36KB)Compressed picture (14KB)You can see slight differences in the gradient part:No zoom4x zoomWhen you download the compressed pictures, make sure they match your standards.OkCheck your faviconCheck your existing favicon with our online tool and see what can be improved.
