What image should I use as a favicon?

Use your logo, brand mark, or a simplified icon that represents your brand. The image must be square (equal width and height) and look recognisable at very small sizes (16×16 pixels).

What favicon sizes are required?

At minimum: 16×16 (browser tab), 32×32 (browser tab on high-DPI screens), 180×180 (Apple Touch Icon for iOS). Additionally: 192×192 and 512×512 for Android PWA manifests.

Should my favicon be in ICO or PNG format?

Provide both. The /favicon.ico file (containing 16×16 and 32×32 versions) ensures compatibility with all browsers including older ones. PNG favicons ( with PNG) are preferred by modern browsers.

Where should I put favicon files?

Place favicon.ico in your domain root (https://example.com/favicon.ico). Other sizes can go in a /favicons/ folder. Reference them with tags in your HTML .

What is the Apple Touch Icon?

Apple Touch Icon is used when users add your website to their iPhone or iPad home screen. Without it, iOS captures a screenshot of your page. A 180×180 PNG with your logo provides a clean, branded home screen icon.

Favicon Generator

Upload an image and generate favicons in all required sizes (16x16, 32x32, 180x180, etc.).

What is Favicon Generator?

The Favicon Generator creates favicon files in all required sizes from a single input image. Upload any image and receive ICO (16×16, 32×32), PNG (16×16, 32×32, 96×96), and Apple Touch Icon (180×180) files — everything needed for complete favicon implementation across all browsers and devices.

A properly implemented favicon set requires multiple files in different sizes for different contexts: browser tabs (16×16), Windows shortcuts (32×32), macOS dock (96×96), and iOS home screen (180×180). This generator creates them all from one upload.

Why Use Favicon Generator?

A single favicon.ico file is no longer sufficient for modern cross-device support. iPhones use 180×180 Apple Touch Icons, Android uses 192×192 for PWA icons, and desktop browsers prefer 32×32 PNGs. This generator creates the complete favicon set in seconds.
