Hello,

I have noticed our logo on Google search is like this:

![Screenshot 2025-03-18 at 13.36.50](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/4X/d/c/8/dc8a8ce29866251cc72a1a6c8bdf564ff4525840.png)

Where can I change this in the back end? Is it Square Logo?

Thanks 🙂

Hello,

What you’re looking for should be the Favicon:

_Square Logo_ also changes the favicon (but also Manifest icon, and Apple touch icon).

My favicon is correct and that is a totally different logo, that’s what has thrown me off.

It seems to use the Apple touch icon. Is that correct?  
I can see on your site it matches this image.

Did you update _Square Logo_, or only _Favicon_?

Favicon, Apple Touch and Square Logo are all now the same logo.

Will monitor and share back if it updates 🙂

I left this over the weekend and made the changes to the above logos and it is still the same ☹

I don’t know how often Google refreshes the cache. You can likely ask Google to recrawl your URLs: [Ask Google to Recrawl Your Website | Google Search Central &nbsp;|&nbsp; Documentation &nbsp;|&nbsp; Google for Developers](https://developers.google.com/search/docs/crawling-indexing/ask-google-to-recrawl?hl=en)

Looking at another search engine, for example, DuckDuckGo or Qwant, it shows the right icon:

Bing shows a generic icon.
