Hi Team,

We tried setting up the favicon with

<link rel="apple-touch-icon" sizes="57x57" href="https://forums.adobe.com/etc/designs/my-project/images/apple-touch-icon-57x57.png"/>

<link rel="apple-touch-icon" sizes="60x60" href="https://forums.adobe.com/etc/designs/my-project/images/apple-touch-icon-60x60.png"/>

<link rel="apple-touch-icon" sizes="76x76" href="https://forums.adobe.com/etc/designs/my-project/images/apple-touch-icon-76x76.png"/>

<link rel="apple-touch-icon" sizes="120x120" href="https://forums.adobe.com/etc/designs/my-project/images/apple-touch-icon-120x120.png"/>

<link rel="apple-touch-icon" sizes="152x152" href="https://forums.adobe.com/etc/designs/my-project/images/apple-touch-icon-152x152.png"/>

<link rel="shortcut icon" href="https://forums.adobe.com/etc/designs/my-project/images/favicon.ico"/>

However, I am unable to get the favicon in iphone 6.

Please suggest any other method or any possible mistake in this one.

Thanks,

AryA.

Hi Dinu,

Hi

Please check the if icon file is only 4bit (16 colors), if so then change it to 8bit (256 colors) file. You can use "Graphics Converter" for this. And try uploading this again.

Please share your IOS version.

Thanks and Regards

We are using 32 bit png files for apple touch icon and 32 bit favicon.ico file as well. Does high bit-depth hurt too?? Is 8 bit the preferred depth or something like that??

I will check with the AEM Mobile Apps team. Lets see if they have encountered this. I will post back findings.

Hi there,

This is specifically a mobile web issue and not related to mobile apps. Have you followed the Apple documentation for web clips?

https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/AppleApplications/Reference/SafariWebContent/ConfiguringWebApplications/ConfiguringWebApplications.html

According to (https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/UserExperience/Conceptual/MobileHIG/IconMatrix.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40006556-CH27-SW2) the size of the web clip icon for an iPhone6S is 120x120.

I assume /etc/designs/my-project/images/apple-touch-icon-120x120.png can be accessed anonymously?

It is also possible this is a bug with iOS 9.
