Favicon Generator
Produce every favicon size a website needs from one source image, including a multi-resolution ICO file. Browsers, bookmarks, mobile home screens and tab bars all want different sizes, and this generates the full set at once. It is free, needs no account, and adds no watermark to your result.

What people use it for.
What happens to your file.
The picture is centred on a transparent square, never cropped, and resampled to each standard size; a small source is enlarged so every size is still produced. The Apple touch icon gets your theme colour behind it, because iOS turns transparency into black. The PNG icons, a multi-resolution favicon.ico, the web manifest and the tags to paste are delivered together as a ZIP.
Where it stops: Detail disappears at 16×16. Icons designed as simplified marks read far better than detailed logos or photographs shrunk down.
What is in the ZIP
| File | Size | Used by |
|---|---|---|
| favicon.ico | 16, 32, 48 and 64 px | Browser tabs and bookmarks, and anything that asks for /favicon.ico directly |
| favicon-16x16.png, favicon-32x32.png | 16 and 32 px | Browser tabs, through the tags in head-snippet.html |
| favicon-48x48.png | 48 px | A spare PNG for a CMS or tool that asks for one at that size |
| apple-touch-icon.png | 180 px | iPhone and iPad home screens |
| android-chrome-192x192.png, android-chrome-512x512.png | 192 and 512 px | Android home screens and installable web apps, through site.webmanifest |
| site.webmanifest | - | Your site name, theme colour and the Android icons |
| head-snippet.html | - | The exact tags to paste into the <head> of your pages |
Installing the set
- Upload every file to the root of your site, so https://yoursite.com/favicon.ico opens the icon.
- Paste the contents of head-snippet.html inside the <head> of every page, or once in your site template.
- The site name and theme colour you enter are written into site.webmanifest and the theme-color tag.
- Browsers cache favicons hard. Check the new icon in a private window before deciding it did not work.
Getting a sharp result
- A wide or tall image is fitted inside the square with transparent space around it, never cropped. Crop it to the symbol first if you want the mark to fill the icon.
- Start from at least 512 × 512 px, the size of the largest icon in the set. A smaller source still gets every size, enlarged.
- iOS shows transparent parts of a home-screen icon as black, so apple-touch-icon.png is filled with your theme colour; the other icons keep their transparency.
- For a Windows application icon with 128 and 256 px sizes, use ICO Converter; this set is sized for websites.
Everything you need, without a paywall.
Common questions.
What source image should I use?
A square image, at least 512×512, with a simple bold shape. Fine detail and small text vanish at favicon sizes.
Do I still need an ICO file?
It remains the most broadly compatible option, particularly for older browsers, so the ICO is generated alongside the PNG sizes.
How do I make a favicon.ico from a PNG or JPG?
Add the image and download the ZIP. The favicon.ico inside holds 16, 32, 48 and 64 px versions, next to PNG icons for browsers, iPhone and Android, the web manifest and the tags to paste into your page.
My logo is wide. Will it be cut off?
No. A wide or tall image is fitted inside the square with transparent space around it, so every letter of a wordmark stays in. For a bolder icon, crop the logo to its symbol first.
Is transparency kept?
Yes, in favicon.ico and the PNG icons, so the icon sits correctly on light and dark tab bars. The Apple touch icon is the exception: iOS would show its transparent parts as black, so it is filled with your theme colour.
