Also takes BMP, GIF, SVG and AVIF. They are turned into PNG first (a GIF keeps its first frame).

How to make a favicon

  1. Drop one JPG, PNG or WebP picture, or paste it. A square picture of 512 pixels or more works best.
  2. If it is not square, choose whether to cut it to a square from the middle or keep all of it with see-through bars.
  3. Press Make favicons.
  4. Download the files one by one or all in a ZIP, put them in the root folder of your site and paste the code shown into the head of your pages.

You get favicon.ico (16, 32 and 48 pixel versions in one file), favicon-16x16.png and favicon-32x32.png for browser tabs, apple-touch-icon.png (180 pixels) for iPhones and iPads, and 192 and 512 pixel icons for Android and installable web apps.

A favicon is tiny, so a simple shape with strong colors reads best. The preview shows your icon at 16, 32 and 64 pixels so you can check it before you download.

A picture smaller than 512 pixels is enlarged for the biggest icons and can look soft, and the page tells you when that happens. A picture with a see-through background keeps it.

Common questions

What files does a website need for a favicon?

A favicon.ico, a 32 by 32 and a 16 by 16 PNG for tabs, an apple-touch-icon.png of 180 pixels for Apple devices, and 192 and 512 pixel icons for Android. This tool makes all of them.

What size should my picture be?

Square and at least 512 by 512 pixels. Smaller pictures still work but the large icons are enlarged and look soft.

What if my logo is not square?

Choose to cut it to a square from the middle, or keep all of it with see-through bars on the sides or top.

Is the favicon.ico a real ICO file?

Yes. It holds the 16, 32 and 48 pixel icons in one standard ICO file that every current browser and Windows version reads.

Is my picture uploaded?

No. The icons are made in your browser, so your picture stays on your device.
