Site icons represent your site in browser tabs, bookmark menus, and on the home screen of mobile devices. Add your unique site icon in the customizer; it will even stay in place when you switch themes. Make your whole site reflect your brand. You can upload your site’s favicon or site icon from the WordPress admin area. Simply only visit Settings » General and upload an image for your site icon. Moreover, WordPress will allow you to crop the image and will also show you a live preview of how it will look in browsers and as a mobile icon. Really great and interesting!

Besides, you are allowed to click show password button and add a password for new user. Of course you can change it if you want.
