Bullseye Emoji Favicon — Free, Fast & Private
The bullseye means goals, precision and hitting a number, and the dart adds the sense of having already landed one. Alternating red and white rings give it more built-in contrast than almost any other object here. It is unmistakably a competitive symbol, which suits performance products and sits badly on gentle ones.
OKR and goal tracking, ad targeting tools, or a sales performance dashboard. It misleads on archery and darts sites by promising a sport and delivering a productivity tool, and the reverse on productivity sites. More seriously, in security and threat-intelligence contexts a target reads as something being attacked rather than something being aimed at, which inverts the meaning completely.
Bullseye in a crowded tab strip
Concentric rings are distinctive enough that this one is easy to find, and its collisions are limited: the radio button and the record button are the only common shapes with the same nested-circle structure, and neither is red. In a wide tab strip it holds its identity better than most detailed objects, because the ring structure survives as banding rather than as detail.
What bullseye looks like at 16 pixels
At 16 pixels the rings compress into a red disc with one visible lighter band, which is exactly enough to read as a target. The dart is gone completely, and that turns out not to matter, because the ring structure was carrying the meaning. It is one of very few detailed emoji here whose identity lives in its colour layout rather than its outline. The rings compress into a red disc with one light band at 16 pixels. The dart disappears entirely, but the target still reads.
Where vendors disagree about bullseye
Vendors disagree on whether the dart is present and where it lands. Apple places it slightly off-centre, Noto puts it dead centre, and a few designs omit it altogether. Ring counts vary between two and three bands. Since none of that survives to 16 pixels, this is a difference you will only ever see on the apple-touch-icon and the manifest sizes.
Where the glyph itself comes from
Your bullseye icon is drawn on your device by your own colour emoji font, so it matches your platform rather than being a consistent cross-platform design. MiniPx ships no emoji artwork. Emoji are colour glyphs, so the .ico carries colour PNG payloads with alpha.
