About Favicon Generator

A favicon is the small icon a browser shows in tabs and bookmarks. This tool crops your image to a centered square, optionally rounds the corners, and writes an ICO container holding three PNG-encoded icons at 16, 32, and 48 pixels. It also downloads a 180 pixel apple-touch-icon.png for iOS home screens. It does not produce a web manifest, Android icons, or an SVG favicon.

  3. Check the preview, then press "Download result" to save the file.

Questions about Favicon Generator

Which sizes are inside the favicon.ico file?

Three: 16 by 16, 32 by 32, and 48 by 48 pixels, each stored as a 32-bit PNG inside the ICO container. Browsers and Windows pick whichever size fits the place where the icon is shown.

How do I add the favicon to my website?

Upload favicon.ico to the root folder of your site, where browsers look for it automatically, or reference it with a link rel="icon" tag in the page head. Add a link rel="apple-touch-icon" tag for the PNG file.

Why were two files downloaded?

The tool saves favicon.ico for browsers and apple-touch-icon.png, a 180 pixel PNG that iPhones and iPads use when someone adds your site to the home screen. Your browser may ask permission to download multiple files.
