- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 13941512, 3 years agoGreat add-on to take care of one of the nasty Firefox shortcomings. I noticed that Firefox sync did not sync my Favicon Switcher settings to a new PC, is there a way to transfer my settings, or plans to make it work with sync or to include an export/import feature? Thanks!
- Rated 4 out of 5by Zodiiak, 4 years agoIt's clean, simple, and does what it says on the tin. Since changing bookmark favicons seems to be impossible, the next thing I'd love to see added is a way to overwrite existing favicon replacements. This is a minor issue, but deleting a favicon and adding a new one is a bit tedious.

posted 4 years agoThanks! Actually, if you click the favicon, I think you can replace it with a new one, Doesn't it work? - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 16758997, 4 years agoNice tool! - Instead of uploading an image, optional, what do think about the possibility of setting an alternative url as a favicon-resource ("redirecting")? I'm thinking of an often occuring problem of having a bookmark to a login-site subpage without a favicon, though the main url of the page have one. Also in this way the favicon would always be up to date. - Beside that, creating a backup-file per click with all url patterns and icons would be great (i.e. if you have to reinstall system or something like that). THANKS!
- Rated 4 out of 5by andus.andre, 4 years agoIt's the best so far. Neat and simple. Some of the local share icons update, some don't but I'm pushing the envelope I guess (ie 192.168.1.25 etc). The summary states very clearly that the dB is stored locally, but it would be so awesome to have this update across all my PC's that use the same sign in profile. In other words Sync Now with FF account. Otherwise GREAT.
- Rated 4 out of 5by Oxide, 5 years agoIt works well for most things, but when viewing pdfs using pdfs.js, it goes back to the original favicon.
- Rated 4 out of 5by RecolitusMorbus, 5 years agoWorks well when I apply new images as instructed and is easy enough to figure out on your own if you don't read instructions (like me), but would like to see a feature to replace bookmark favicons in the future. If that's possible, it'll be an instant 5-star once it was available.
