      Favicons just are't reliable enough for these new (7.3+) web link apps. Eg:

      • https://pdf.online/tools

      May as well make them editable too please:

        @marcusquinn this is already there, you can click on the icon in the configure view and upload a new one.

          There were a fix app link related bug fixed in 7.3.1, so you might want to update to that first.

            @girish Got it. I think the text "Clear Icon" should say "Refresh Favicon" then. As I was expecting that link to clear it for then showing an option to import or upload one.

              Since there are quite a few different standards and some pages use their own paradigm, fetching an icon is not a trivial task. Already we code which attempts different ones. In your case the issue is, they specify multiple favicons with the same tag and attributes, where our code happens to pick the smallest one pixel wise. Have to see how we can maybe make this more robust by maybe trying to guess from the filename which one is more useful there.
