Can you explain how the impact is high? It seems extremely low to me.

I am usually a perfectionist in icons, and this really does trigger me.

This is because the so-called “app” is just an embedded webpage and your phone might messed some things up. It also depends on the icon system your phone is using, you should be able to fix it, though it’s a very very VERY minor issue.
Still perfectly fitting fine on old devices like mine
like what the above post stated, it’s not an actual application that were created with actual program, DevForum on mobile is just Browser version of Google or any external and since it uses the icon from tabs in Browser PC version, I’d say it would depend on how Android or iOS handle the size of the icon.
I believe this happens with icons using a background, on newer devices.
This is possibly related.
This likely is related, my icon keeps on getting smaller constantly. To the point that now if it got any smaller, the Roblox Studio icon wouldn’t even be there, just the white background.

This conversation should probable be marked as solved and continued on Discourse’s end then.
I have no idea whether it’s limited to Chrome only, but my icon hasn’t decreased in size at all, I’m using Microsoft Edge (which is based on Chromium) on MIUI 13 based on Android 12.
This is ridiculous.

I can confirm it looks fine on my iPhone 11 (iOS 16) however I don’t have an android that I can test with 
The PWA I installed was using Microsoft Edge.
looks just fine on my blackberry
For all of you not getting this on iPhone I believe it only happens on Android, not known if newer or older versions. Mine is Android 9 Pie.
I’m glad this isn’t just me. It seems to shrink every day. I’m slowly being reduced to a single blue pixel
This seems like a bug with either the latest version(s) or Chrome or Android 13. I should note it’s not the only PWA I have installed whose icon is shrinking
The icon is shrinking on the splash screen too.

From what I’ve seen, this looks to be limited to Chrome, my PWA icons did go a bit weird earlier, I think it’s a launcher issue though:
Haven’t noticed icons for any Discourse PWA shrink either. I might try Kiwi Browser to see what happens with it
Doesn’t seem to be an issue to me, guess it occurs to newer version of Android.

For whatever reason, uninstalling and reinstalling the PWA seems to have fixed it for me (as far as I’ve noticed anyway)
Icon still shrinks, but the DevForum is not unbearably slow to launch and browse anymore

Chiming in here!
Discourse’s has been chiming on on the related bug report on their own forums and has said that
We’ll keep monitoring so that we can apply the fix on the DevForum once its ready.

Interestingly enough, this bug has expanded to me as an Edge user (was going to happen eventually since Edge runs on Chromium), but it’s happened to some non Discourse PWAs as well (use Outlook as an example as the size that icons should be)
Edit: This issue seems to have expanded to all my non-Discourse and Discourse PWAs now
