Yoast 12.1 adds custom favicons to the mobile snippet preview

Wednesday, September 18, 2019

Yoast has released version 12.1 of its WordPress plugin; the update adds your custom favicon to the mobile snippet preview, matches Google’s font sizes on desktop search results and introduces new schema filters.

An accurate preview of your mobile and desktop listings enables you to get a better idea of what your customers see before they click through, which may help you optimize your snippets and encourage them to click on your results.
The new filters introduced in this update can also be used to control your schema output and provide searchers with pertinent information about your brand.
