Favicons, those tiny icons that represent websites, can help you quickly identify your favorite pages at a glance. By default, Safari might not show these icons, but with a few simple steps, you can bring them back to enhance your browsing experience.
Let's start with iOS 12. To enable favicons on Safari for your iPhone or iPad, follow these steps:
1. Open the Settings app on your iOS device.
2. Scroll down and tap on "Safari."
3. Under the General section, toggle the switch next to "Show Icons in Tabs" to enable favicons in Safari.
Once you've completed these steps, open Safari on your iOS device, and you'll now see favicons displayed next to the webpage titles in your tabs. This small change can make a big difference in helping you navigate and identify your open tabs more efficiently.
Moving on to macOS Mojave, if you're a fan of using Safari on your Mac but miss those favicons, fret not. Here's how you can enable them on your Safari browser running on macOS Mojave:
1. Open Safari on your Mac.
2. Go to the Safari menu and click on "Preferences."
3. In the Preferences window, navigate to the "Tabs" section.
4. Check the box next to "Show website icons in tabs" to enable favicons in Safari on your Mac.
After ticking that box, refresh or open new tabs in Safari on your Mac, and you'll notice the favicons making a comeback, adding a touch of visual appeal and usability to your browsing sessions.
Now that you've successfully enabled favicons in Safari on both your iOS 12 device and macOS Mojave, enjoy the benefits of quick tab identification and a more visually engaging browsing experience. Whether you're a productivity-focused workhorse or a casual web surfer, this simple customization can make navigating the web a bit more enjoyable.
Remember, if at any point you wish to revert to the default setting and hide favicons, simply follow the steps above and toggle the switches back to their original positions.
So, there you have it, a quick guide to jazzing up your Safari experience by effortlessly enabling favicons on your iOS 12 devices and macOS Mojave. Happy browsing!
