What size should my source image be?

Use a square image of at least 256×256 pixels for best results. A 512×512 or 1024×1024 PNG or SVG gives the sharpest downscaling to 16×16.

How do I add a favicon to my website?

Place the favicon PNG files in your root directory and add link tags in your HTML head: . Repeat for each size you want to declare.

Can I generate an .ico file?

No. This tool generates PNG files only. For an .ico file (which can contain multiple sizes in one file), use a dedicated .ico generator tool.

Is my image uploaded to a server?

No. All six sizes are generated using the Canvas API in your browser. Nothing is transmitted.

Favicon Generator

Generate favicon PNG files in all 6 standard sizes from any image — instant, no upload.

How to use this tool

1Click the upload zone and select a square image (PNG, JPG, SVG, or WebP).
2All six favicon sizes (16×16, 32×32, 48×48, 64×64, 128×128, 256×256) are generated instantly.
3Click the 'Save' link under each size to download that PNG individually.

About Favicon Generator

A complete favicon setup requires PNG files at six sizes: 16×16 (browser tab), 32×32 (taskbar), 48×48 (Windows shortcut), 64×64 (high-DPI tab), 128×128 (Chrome Web Store), and 256×256 (Windows tile). Creating all six manually from a source image is repetitive. This generator draws your uploaded image onto a Canvas at each of the six sizes simultaneously and presents them in a grid with individual download links. The source image is drawn with drawImage() scaled to each target size, so a high-resolution square PNG or SVG gives the sharpest results at small sizes. All six are generated the moment you upload — no button to click. Download each size individually as a PNG. Web developers setting up a new site, designers handing off assets to developers, and anyone who needs a quick favicon from a logo are the primary users.
