By enabling the Show Icon Only option for bookmarks in the address bar, you can make it more compact and slim. This can be useful on devices with a small display size.
To Show Icon Only for Bookmark in Microsoft Edge Chromium,
- Open Edge.
- Enable the favorites bar if needed.
- Right-click on a bookmark you want to show as icon-only.
- Select Show icon only from the context menu.
- Repeat the step above for all bookmarks you want to show as icons.
You are done!

- Beta Channel: 75.0.139.39

Great! So much better than having nameless bookmarks. I wish Firefox had this.
