Please add the ability to upload a custom favicon or specify a URL for it, separate from the Glide app icon. **Why It’s Needed:** Currently, Glide forces a background color on favicons, even when a transparent icon is uploaded. This results in: - **Inconsistent appearance** – Users who want a round icon are forced into a square. - **Poor visibility across themes** – A white-background favicon looks fine in light mode but is jarring in dark mode. - **Lack of control** – Users should be able to maintain branding consistency while still using Glide’s color scheme inside the app. A simple favicon upload or URL option would solve this, allowing apps to look polished across different devices and themes. ---
