Description
Hi everyone, I think I may have run into a bug with the Glide app icon on iPhone when saving the app to the Home Screen from Safari.

When I tap Share > Add to Home Screen, the tend icon preview looks crisp and clear. But once the web app is actually added to the Home Screen, the saved icon looks blurry/pixelated.

I’ve attached screenshots showing:
1. the install prompt within the app
2. the Add to Home Screen preview, which is also what the final saved icon looks like on the Home Screen

A few things I’ve already tried:
• re-uploading the icon
• temporarily changing the icon and changing it back to try to force a refresh
• clearing cache and re-adding the app to the Home Screen
• exporting and uploading the icon as a PNG in the recommended Apple app icon sizes

Since the icon looks sharp before install but still ends up blurry once saved, I’m wondering if Glide might be serving a lower-resolution asset for the installed icon, or if something isn’t updating properly in the icon/manifest handling on iPhone.

Has anyone else run into this? It seems strange that the preview looks sharp, but the installed Home Screen icon still ends up blurry/faded.

Thanks so much.

How to replicate
||1.|Open the Glide app in Safari on iPhone|
||2.|Tap Share|
||3.|Tap Add to Home Screen|
||4.|In the Add to Home Screen screen, the icon preview appears crisp and clear|
||5.|Complete the save and add the app to the Home Screen|
||6.|View the saved Home Screen icon, which appears blurry/pixelated|

I am shocked no one has had this same issue… I have the same issue too! Have you managed to fix it yet?

No, no one responded to me unfortunately! I had a graphic designer spec the image and triple check it against apple icon requirements, and so I’m certain the issue is on Glide’s end. Unsure what to do. Let me know if you figure it out!

Can you please submit a ticket through your builder environment (bottom right icon) so the support team can look into this? Thank you.
