Favicon Generator

Upload one square image and download every favicon your site needs: a real favicon.ico, PNGs from 16×16 to 512×512, the Apple touch icon — plus the exact HTML to paste in your <head>. All generated on your device.

Which files do you actually need? Four cover everything in 2026: favicon.ico (legacy + address bar), favicon-32.png, apple-touch-icon.png (180×180, iOS home screen), and icon-512.png (Android/PWA). This tool generates all of them from one image.

Infographic: favicon sizes explained — 16px legacy tabs, 32px modern tabs, 48px Google results, 180px iOS, 512px Android and PWA
Downscaling is clean, upscaling never is — upload your largest square logo and let the sizes cascade down.

Frequently asked questions

What favicon sizes do I need in 2026?

Four files cover everything: favicon.ico (with 16, 32, and 48px versions inside), a 32×32 PNG for modern tabs, a 180×180 apple-touch-icon for iOS, and a 512×512 PNG for Android/PWA. This tool generates all of them plus the HTML.

Where do I put the favicon files on my website?

Place them in your site's root directory (the same folder as your homepage) and paste the generated HTML links into the <head> of every page. Browsers also check /favicon.ico at the root automatically.

Why does my favicon not show up after uploading?

Browsers cache favicons aggressively. Hard-refresh (Ctrl+Shift+R), try a private window, or append ?v=2 to the href in your HTML to force a reload. Also confirm the file actually loads by visiting yourdomain.com/favicon.ico directly.

Is a real .ico file still necessary?

Yes, for now — Google Search results and some older environments still look specifically for favicon.ico at the root. This tool builds a genuine multi-resolution .ico (16+32+48) rather than a renamed PNG.
