~~Besides that a [favicon](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Favicon) might be shared by many email addresses with the same domain name~~
~~and therefore is not directly related to an email address, favicons can be used to track you.~~
Yes, favicons can be enabled in the display-settings tab page.

To reduce privacy concerns, the app fetches favicons directly from the internet using the domain name of email addresses.
In other words, no third-party service is used.

Since version 1.2210 it is also possible to use DuckDuckGo's icon service (GitHub version only).
There are concerns about [privacy](https://github.com/duckduckgo/Android/issues/527).

Since version 1.2213 it is possible to configure an alternative URI to fetch favicons in the debug options
by temporarily enabling debug mode in the miscellaneous-settings tab page.
For example:


```
https://icons.duckduckgo.com/ip3/{domain}.ico
https://www.google.com/s2/favicons?sz=128&domain={domain}
https://favicon.yandex.net/favicon/{domain}
```
