Why am I getting error for apple-touch-icon-precomposed.png

I guess apple devices make those requests if the device owner adds the site to it. This is the equivalent of the favicon. To resolve, add 2 100×100 png files, save it as apple-touch-icon-precomposed.png and apple-touch-icon.png and upload it to the root directory of the server. After that, the error should be gone.

I noticed lots of requests for apple-touch-icon-precomposed.png and apple-touch-icon.png in the logs that tried to load the images from the root directory of the site. I first thought it was a misconfiguration of the mobile theme and plugin, but found out later that Apple devices make those requests if the device owner adds the site to it.
