How It Works

1. Pick Your Source

Choose text (1-3 characters), upload an image, or select an emoji. For text, you get access to Google Fonts with weight and size controls.

2. Customize the Look

Set background and foreground colors. Pick a shape - square, circle, or rounded corners. The preview updates as you change settings.

3. Download

Click "Download All as ZIP" to get favicon.ico and PNG files at 16, 32, 64, 150, 180, 192, and 512 pixels. The ZIP includes HTML code for your site.

When You'd Use This

Side project landing page

You just deployed a Next.js app and need a favicon before sharing it. Type the first letter of your project name, match your brand color, and you're done in two minutes.

Client website from scratch

The client sent a logo PNG but it's 2000x2000 pixels. Upload it here, get the resized versions, and drop them into the site root.

Internal dashboard or admin panel

Your team has six similar dashboards open. A colored emoji favicon makes each tab instantly recognizable without reading the title.

Portfolio or personal site

Use your initials in a nice font instead of hunting for the right icon. Adjust the weight until it matches your site's typography.

What to Know Before Using This

Text works best at 1-3 characters

At 16x16 pixels, anything longer becomes unreadable. If you need more text, consider using the image upload with a pre-made graphic.

Google Fonts need a moment to load

When you switch fonts, there's a brief delay while the font loads from Google's servers. The preview won't update until it's ready.

Check the 16x16 preview

Designs that look sharp at 512px can turn muddy at tab size. Use the live preview to catch issues before downloading.

ICO vs PNG - when to use each

Modern browsers handle PNG fine, but .ico is still the safest bet for cross-browser compatibility. The ZIP includes both.

Frequently Asked Questions

What sizes are included in the download?
You get .ico files (which contain 16x16 and 32x32) plus individual PNG files at 16, 32, 64, 150, 180, 192, and 512 pixels. That covers browser tabs, taskbar icons, iOS home screens, and Android app icons.
How do I add the favicon to my website?
Extract the ZIP file and put the images in your website's root folder. Then copy the HTML code from the included README.txt into the <head> section of your pages. For most sites, you need the .ico file and at least the 180x180 PNG for iOS devices.
Can I use a multi-color logo as a favicon?
Yes, upload it as an image. The tool preserves all colors from your original file. Just keep in mind that fine details may not be visible at 16x16 pixels, so simple logos work better.
Why does my text look different than the font preview?
Google Fonts load from an external server, so there's a brief delay. Wait for the font to fully load before downloading. If it still looks off, try increasing the font size percentage or switching to a bolder weight.
Do I need to include all the generated files?
Not necessarily. For a basic setup, just use favicon.ico and the 180x180 PNG for iOS. The other sizes are optional - include them if you want full coverage across all devices and browsers.
Is this really free for commercial use?
Yes. The generated favicons are yours to use however you want. No attribution required, no usage limits. The Google Fonts used are also free for commercial use under their respective licenses.
What happens to my uploaded images?
Nothing - they never leave your browser. The tool uses the Canvas API to process everything locally. Close the tab and your images are gone from memory.
