Apple Touch Icon Turns Black


The white background in my apple touch icon turns black?? My white background isn't transparent. The icon has a white triangle, red circle and black text. The only thing I can make out is the white triangle and red circle. Any idea whats causing this and how to make the icon keep its white background? Much appreciated.


Solution

  • I'm not sure exactly what it was, but I may have narrowed it down. The first time I uploaded the images they may have had the transparent background. The second time I uploaded them I added the white background, but the png save for devices setting still had transparency checked. The third time I uploaded them I saved them without the transparency checked but still got the black background. All along I think the iOS Safari browser had the first set of images stored in cache. After clearing the cache the new image showed up with no problem.

    Edit: Its the transparent background that turns it black.
