Favicon Generator

Turn any image into a full favicon set — 16×16 to 512×512 PNGs plus ICO — zipped and ready for your website.

About the Favicon Generator

Generate a complete, production-ready favicon set from any image in seconds. Upload a logo or icon and this tool creates every size a modern website needs: 16×16, 32×32 and 48×48 for browser tabs, a 180×180 apple-touch-icon for iOS home screens, and 192×192 plus 512×512 Android Chrome icons — all bundled into a single ZIP with a proper favicon.ico file.

Everything is generated in your browser: your logo is never uploaded, and there is nothing to install. The favicon.ico contains the 16, 32 and 48 pixel versions in one multi-resolution file, exactly as browsers expect, while the included site.webmanifest wires up the Android icons for progressive web apps and Chrome's install prompt.

You also get a ready-made HTML snippet to paste into your site's head section, so the whole job — from logo to live favicon — takes under a minute. Non-square images are center-cropped automatically, and a preview row shows how your icon looks at every generated size before you download.

How to Use the Favicon Generator

  1. 1Upload your logo or icon — a square PNG of 512×512 px or larger gives the best results.
  2. 2Click Generate Favicon Set and preview the icon at every size.
  3. 3Copy the HTML snippet and paste it inside your site's <head> tag.
  4. 4Download the ZIP and extract all files into your website's root folder.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I create a favicon from an image?

Upload any logo or picture here and click Generate Favicon Set. The tool resizes it to all standard favicon dimensions (16 to 512 pixels), builds a multi-resolution favicon.ico, adds Apple and Android icons plus a web manifest, and packages everything in a ZIP. Extract the files to your site's root folder and paste the provided HTML snippet into your head tag.

What size should a favicon be?

Provide several sizes rather than one: 16×16 and 32×32 for browser tabs, 48×48 for Windows shortcuts, 180×180 for iOS home screens, and 192×192 plus 512×512 for Android and PWA install prompts. This generator produces all of them automatically from one source image, so you never have to resize by hand.

Do I still need a favicon.ico file in 2026?

It is still the safest choice. Browsers automatically request /favicon.ico as a fallback, older software expects it, and search results sometimes read it directly. This tool builds a favicon.ico containing the 16, 32 and 48 pixel versions using PNG encoding, which every modern browser supports, alongside the individual PNG files.

Why does my favicon look blurry?

Blurriness usually means the browser is scaling a single large image down to 16×16. Providing dedicated small sizes — as this generator does — lets the browser pick the exact resolution it needs. Also start from a simple, high-contrast logo: fine details and thin text disappear at tab-icon size no matter how well it is resized.

What if my logo is not square?

The generator center-crops your image to a square automatically before creating the icon sizes, so nothing gets stretched or distorted. If the important part of your logo is off-center, crop it to a square yourself first with our image cropper, then upload the result for pixel-perfect framing.

Is my logo uploaded to a server?

No. All resizing, ICO building and ZIP packaging happen in your browser with JavaScript. Your logo never leaves your computer, which makes the tool safe for unreleased branding and client work under NDA. You can generate as many favicon sets as you like, completely free.
