Free Online Favicon Maker & Generator

Our free favicon maker allows you to instantly generate a complete set of favicons for your website directly in your browser. Whether you have a PNG, JPG, SVG, WebP, or GIF logo, this tool automatically converts it into all the essential sizes required by modern web browsers, smartphones, and tablets.

A favicon (short for "favorite icon") is the small icon that appears next to your website's title in browser tabs, bookmarks, and mobile home screens. Generating the correct formats - especially the traditional favicon.ico file and the high-resolution Apple Touch Icon - is crucial for maintaining a professional brand identity across all devices.

Unlike other favicon generators, our tool runs 100% on your device (client-side). Your logo is never uploaded to an external server. We use advanced HTML5 Canvas processing to resize your images, apply padding, modify the background, and bundle everything into a convenient ZIP file instantly.

How to Create Your Favicon Package

  1. Upload your logo

    Drag and drop your high-resolution PNG, JPG, SVG, or WebP logo into the upload area. A square image works best.

  2. Adjust settings & preview

    Use the live tab preview to see how your icon will look. You can add padding so the logo does not touch the edges, choose a transparent or solid background color, and even apply rounded corners or a circular mask.

  3. Generate the package

    Click "Generate Favicon Package". The tool instantly creates the multi-size ICO file along with high-res PNG versions for Apple and Android.

  4. Download and install

    Download the ZIP archive and extract it to your website's root folder. Then, simply copy the provided HTML tags and paste them into the <head> section of your site.

What's Included in the Favicon ZIP?

Generating a single 16x16 icon is no longer enough for modern web development. To ensure your site looks perfect on Retina displays, iOS devices, and Android Progressive Web Apps (PWAs), our generator outputs a complete, production-ready bundle:

  • favicon.ico: A multi-resolution ICO file containing both 16x16 and 32x32 formats. This ensures compatibility with legacy browsers (like older versions of Internet Explorer) and specific search engine crawlers.
  • favicon-16x16.png & favicon-32x32.png: The standard formats used by modern desktop browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Safari) for the tab bar.
  • apple-touch-icon.png (180x180): The required high-resolution format Apple devices use when a user saves your website to their iOS Home Screen.
  • android-chrome-192x192.png & android-chrome-512x512.png: High-resolution icons defined in the web manifest, used by Android devices and PWAs.
  • site.webmanifest: A standard JSON file that tells Android devices how to display your app icon and name.

Frequently Asked Questions

What image formats can I upload?

You can upload PNG, JPG, WebP, GIF, or SVG images. For the best results, we recommend uploading a square image with a transparent background (like a PNG or SVG).

Why do I need multiple favicon sizes?

Different browsers and devices require different icon sizes. A standard 16x16 or 32x32 icon is used for browser tabs, while a 180x180 "Apple Touch Icon" is required if a user saves your website to their iPhone home screen. Android devices use 192x192 and 512x512 icons.

Does this tool generate a true .ico file?

Yes! The ZIP download includes a true `favicon.ico` file that contains both 16x16 and 32x32 pixel versions, which is the standard format required by legacy browsers and some search engines.

Is my uploaded image sent to a server?

No. The entire favicon generation process, including resizing and ZIP archive creation, happens locally inside your browser. Your image is never uploaded to any server, guaranteeing complete privacy.

What HTML code do I need to add to my website?

The tool automatically generates the exact `<link>` tags you need. Simply copy the generated HTML code and paste it into the `<head>` section of your website's HTML document.
