Favicon FAQ

What sizes do I need for a favicon?

A modern site wants a real favicon.ico (16/32/48 packed together), 16×16 and 32×32 PNGs for browser tabs, a 180×180 apple-touch-icon for iOS, and 192/512 PNGs (plus a 512 maskable) for Android & PWA installs. This tool generates every one of them, plus the site.webmanifest and the exact HTML to paste.

Does this make a real .ico file?

Yes — a true multi-resolution favicon.ico containing 16, 32 and 48 px images, which is what browsers request by default. Most free tiers only give you a single 16×16 PNG; here the full .ico and PWA set are free.

Can I make a favicon from text or an emoji?

Yes. Switch to Text mode and type a letter, a couple of initials, or paste an emoji — pick a font, colour and background and you've got a clean brand favicon in seconds, no image needed.

Is my image uploaded anywhere?

No. Everything runs in your browser with the Canvas API — your image never leaves your device. We can't see it and nothing is stored.

How do I install it?

Download the ZIP, drop the files into your site's root folder (next to index.html), and paste the provided <link> / <meta> tags into your <head>. The included site.webmanifest wires up Android & PWA icons.
