Its important to point out that favicons are small icons that represent a website.
This is when it becomes a bit inconvenient to identify a particular website.
Despite being a powerful surfing app, Safari lacked the ability to display favicons.
Particularly those who prefer to have a clean look.
If thats you, do not worry as hiding the website favicons in Safaris favorites bar is plain sailing.
Bottom Line
Favicons are useful for identifying specific websites from a bunch of them.
Personally, prefer to keep the favorites bar enabled in Safari to make it keep the confusion away.
Hence, its a welcome addition to Apples net surf tool.
And Im sure many of you would appreciate this new feature.
