Frequently Asked Questions

What size should a favicon be?

The standard favicon is 16x16 or 32x32 pixels for browser tabs. For Apple devices, use 180x180 for the Apple Touch Icon. This tool generates all three sizes from your uploaded image.

What is an ICO file?

An ICO file is a container format that can hold multiple sizes of an icon (e.g., 16x16 and 32x32) in a single file. Browsers select the best size automatically. It is the traditional format for favicon.ico.

Can I use PNG as favicon?

Yes. Modern browsers support PNG and SVG favicons via the link tag. However, ICO is still the most compatible format across all browsers and legacy systems. This tool lets you download both.
