The Ultimate Favicon Generator

A Favicon (short for "favorite icon") is the small 16x16 pixel logo that appears in the browser tab next to your website title. While small, it is critical for brand recognition and user experience, helping users identify your site among dozens of open tabs.

In modern web development, a single `.ico` file is no longer enough. You need specific sizes for Apple Touch Icons (iPhone/iPad home screens), Android Chrome (PWA Add-to-Home), and high-resolution taskbar shortcuts.

Our Free Favicon Generator automates this complex process. Upload your logo once, and we instantly render pixel-perfect icons in all 8 industry-standard sizes, generate the necessary HTML code, and package everything into a neat ZIP file—all without sending your private logo to a server.

How to Add a Favicon to Your Site

1

Upload Logo

Use a high-quality square PNG (at least 512x512px) with a transparent background for the best results.

2

Download & Code

Download the icon package and copy the generated HTML. Place the files in your site's root directory.

3

Verify

Paste the HTML into your <head> tag. Clear your browser cache to see the new icon appear.

Frequently Asked Questions

What sizes are generated?

We generate 8 sizes: 16×16 (browser tab), 32×32 (taskbar), 48×48 (desktop shortcut), 64×64 (high-DPI tab), 128×128 (Chrome Web Store), 180×180 (Apple Touch Icon), 192×192 (Android Chrome), and 512×512 (PWA splash screen).

What is the difference between .ico and .png?

ICO is the traditional Windows format that can contain multiple sizes in one file. PNG is a modern format supported by all browsers. For maximum compatibility, use both: ICO for legacy browsers and PNG for modern ones.

What is Apple Touch Icon?

Apple Touch Icon (180×180) is used when users add your website to their iPhone/iPad home screen. Without it, Safari takes a screenshot of your page instead.

What is the PWA icon?

PWA (Progressive Web App) icons (192×192 and 512×512) are used in Android Chrome for 'Add to Home Screen' and as splash screen images when your web app launches.

What image format should I upload?

PNG with transparency works best. We recommend 512×512 or larger for the sharpest results. JPG and WEBP are also supported but won't have transparency.

How do I add favicons to my website?

Download all files, upload to your website root, then add the HTML code (use 'Copy HTML Code' button) to your section. The code includes all necessary link tags.

What background options are there?

Three options: Transparent (default, best for logos), White (solid background), or Custom (pick any color). This is useful if your logo doesn't have transparency.

Can I download individual sizes?

Yes! After generating, you can either 'Download All' to get everything at once, or click individual size buttons to download specific versions.

Is my data private?

Absolutely. All processing happens locally in your browser. Your images are never uploaded to any server.

Why is my favicon not updating?

Browsers cache favicons aggressively. Try: 1) Hard refresh (Ctrl+Shift+R), 2) Clear browser cache, 3) Add a version query like favicon.ico?v=2, or 4) Wait 24 hours for cache to expire.
