About the Favicon Generator

A favicon is the small icon that shows up in a browser tab, bookmarks list, and — in various larger sizes — on mobile home screens when someone saves your site. Different devices and contexts expect different exact pixel sizes, and generating each one manually is tedious. This tool takes a single source image and produces every standard size at once.

How to use it

  1. Upload a square image with a simple, clear design
  2. Choose a background option — transparent, white, or a custom color
  3. Click "Generate Favicons"
  4. Download each size individually as needed

Frequently Asked Questions

Which sizes do I actually need?

At minimum, 16×16 and 32×32 cover standard browser tab icons. If you want your site to look good when saved to a phone's home screen, also include 180×180 (Apple) and 192×192 (Android).

Why does my logo look blurry at 16×16?

Complex logos with fine detail or small text lose clarity at very small sizes. A simplified icon-style version of your logo — bold shapes, minimal detail — tends to hold up much better at favicon sizes.

Should my source image be square?

Yes — favicons are always square, so a non-square source image will be squashed or cropped depending on how it's applied. Starting with a square image gives the most predictable result.
