Favicon Generator
MarketingCreate a full favicon set from a single image.
Favicon Generator turns one square image into the full set of icons a site needs — the .ico, the PNGs at each size browsers ask for, the apple-touch-icon, and a web manifest wired to match. Download it as a zip and drop it into your project. The whole set is rendered on your device, so an unreleased logo doesn't have to be uploaded to a favicon site first.

A logo or mark works best; anything with fine detail will be hard to read at 16 pixels.

Frequently asked questions
How do I create a favicon.ico?
Drop in a square image and you get a real multi-size .ico containing the 16, 32 and 48 pixel versions, alongside PNGs for Apple touch (180) and PWA icons (192 and 512) — the whole set a modern site needs, from one file.
What should I upload?
Something square and simple — a logo mark rather than a full wordmark. Anything with fine detail or small text turns to mush at 16 pixels, which is the size that matters most because it's what shows in a browser tab.
How do I add it to my site?
Upload the files to your site's root, then paste the ready-made <head> snippet the tool gives you. A web manifest is generated too, so the PWA icons are wired up rather than just sitting in the folder.
Can a favicon have a transparent background?
Yes — transparency is preserved through the PNGs and the .ico, so the icon sits properly on both light and dark browser chrome rather than carrying a white square around it.
