Create custom iPhone and iPod Touch webclip icons

Filed under: , , , ,

Dan Dickinson has posted a super-simple way to ensure that those who visit your site with an iPod Touch or iPhone will get a nice-looking webclip icon. When I say simple, I mean it:

  • Create a 57×57 PNG.
  • Name it “apple-touch-icon.png”
  • Throw it in the root folder of your website. (Not the
    root of your server, the root of your web documents.)

That’s it. Note that your icon will receive the glossy treatment as well as those rounded corners, so keep that in mind.
