What Are Favicons and Why Do They Matter?

A favicon (short for "favorite icon") is the small icon displayed in browser tabs, bookmarks, history entries, and search results next to your website's name. It is one of the most recognizable visual elements of your brand on the web, and every website should have one.

Favicons play an important role in branding and user experience. They help visitors quickly identify your site among multiple open tabs, make your bookmarks instantly recognizable, and give your site a polished, professional appearance. Search engines like Google also display favicons in mobile search results, making them part of your SEO presence.

Modern websites need favicons in multiple sizes. Browser tabs use 16x16 or 32x32 icons, Windows shortcuts use 48x48 or 64x64, Apple devices need a 180x180 Touch Icon, and Progressive Web Apps require 192x192 and 512x512 icons. Our generator creates all these sizes from a single source image, so you never have to worry about missing a format.

Favicon Generator FAQs

Common questions about creating favicons

What is a favicon?

A favicon (favorite icon) is the small icon shown in browser tabs, bookmarks, and search results next to your website's name. It helps users identify your site and gives it a professional, branded appearance.

What size should a favicon be?

The most essential sizes are 16x16 (browser tabs), 32x32 (browser tabs on HiDPI screens), and 48x48 (Windows shortcuts). For full compatibility, also include 180x180 (Apple Touch Icon), 192x192 (Android Chrome), and 512x512 (PWA splash screens). Our tool generates all of these from a single image.

What is an ICO file?

An ICO file is a special image format that can contain multiple icon sizes in a single file. Browsers automatically select the best size from the ICO file. It is the traditional favicon format and provides the widest compatibility across all browsers, including older versions of Internet Explorer.

Do I need both ICO and PNG favicons?

For maximum compatibility, yes. The ICO file (favicon.ico) covers older browsers and is the traditional standard. PNG favicons allow you to specify exact sizes for modern browsers, Apple devices, and Android devices using link tags in your HTML head.

What is an Apple Touch Icon?

An Apple Touch Icon is a 180x180 pixel PNG image that iOS uses when a user adds your website to their home screen. Without one, Safari will use a screenshot of your page instead, which looks unprofessional. Add it with:

What image format works best as a source?

PNG and SVG work best because they support transparency, allowing your favicon to look clean on any background. Square images produce the best results since favicons are always square. If your source image is not square, it will be centered and scaled to fit.

How do I add a favicon to my website?

Place your favicon.ico file in the root of your website. For PNG favicons, add link tags in your HTML head section, for example:. Most browsers will automatically find a favicon.ico file in the root directory.

Are my images uploaded to a server?

No. All processing happens 100% in your browser using the Canvas API and JavaScript. Your images never leave your device, making this tool completely private and secure.
