Favicon Generator: Build the Icons a Website Actually Needs
A favicon is the small identity mark shown in browser tabs, bookmarks and other browser UI. Modern sites may also need larger touch and app icons, not just a single 16×16 file.
A useful favicon package starts with a clean square source and produces the common sizes and files needed across browsers and devices.
How to create a favicon set
- Upload a clear square logo or icon with enough resolution.
- Generate the standard icon sizes from that source.
- Download the package and add the supplied files/snippet to your site.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What size should my source image be?+
Use a reasonably large square source so smaller icons can be generated cleanly. A 512×512 or larger source is a practical starting point.
Does a favicon have to be square?+
The standard icon canvases are square. A non-square logo can be placed inside a square canvas, but stretching it to fit would distort the artwork.
Why do I need more than favicon.ico?+
Modern browsers and devices use different icon files and sizes for tabs, shortcuts, touch icons and installed web apps.
Can I use a transparent background?+
Yes for formats that support transparency, but always check how the icon looks on both light and dark browser chrome.
Why does my favicon look blurry?+
The source may contain too much detail, or the browser may be showing an older cached favicon. Simple artwork and a properly generated size set help.
