How To Enable Safari Favicon In macOS and iOS

A favicon (favorite icon) is a small icon that visualizes a website’s main purpose or identity in one little image. For example, this can be a tiny version of a website’s logo. Browsers, like Safari, may display a website’s favicon in the browser’s address bar. Safari provides favicon support.

A lot of people find favicons useful because they make tabs more visually recognizable.

This article explains how you can show favicons in Safari on your iPhone, iPad or Mac. By default, favicons are disabled, so if you want to see favicons, it must be enabled on Mac or on iOS devices.
