Create a favicon – the small icon shown in browser tabs, bookmarks and search results – from any image. Upload your logo, choose how it fits the square, and download a ready-to-use favicon.ico plus PNG app icons for phones, all in one ZIP.
The tool also gives you the HTML code to paste into your website's <head>, so your icon shows up correctly everywhere.
How to Make a Favicon
- Choose your image: A square logo or symbol works best; PNG with transparency is ideal.
- Pick the fit: Whole image (adds padding so nothing is cut off) or Fill square (crops the edges).
- Set the background: Transparent, white or a custom colour, and round the corners if you like.
- Download: Get
favicon.icoalone or Download all icons (ZIP). - Add it to your site: Upload the files to your website's root folder and paste the provided code into the
<head>.
Favicon Tips
- Keep it simple – a single letter or symbol stays readable at 16 × 16 pixels.
- Use strong contrast; thin lines and small text disappear at tiny sizes.
- A solid background colour looks better on Apple and Android home screens than transparency.
Key Features
- Multi-size .ico file plus PNG icons for Apple touch and Android.
