How this tool works

What it does

Favicon Generator builds a practical favicon ZIP (real .ico + common PNG sizes + README).

Fit & background

Cover crops to a square; Contain pads to a square on your background color.

Not included

site.webmanifest, maskable icons, Safari pinned-tab SVG, browserconfig.xml.

Privacy & metadata

In-browser only; nothing is uploaded. Re-encoding through the browser canvas removes EXIF, GPS, and other metadata.

Favicon Generator in your browser

Favicon Generator builds a practical favicon ZIP from any source image in your browser — the file is never uploaded to a server. The ZIP contains a real multi-size favicon.ico (16, 32, 48 px), PNG icons at 16, 32, 48, 64, 128, 180, 192, and 512 px, and a README snippet.

Choose Cover to crop each icon to a square (a logo or mark may be cropped) or Contain to show the whole image padded to a square on your chosen background color. This is a practical starter pack; it does not include site.webmanifest, maskable icons, a Safari pinned-tab SVG, or browserconfig.xml.

Favicon Generator shows the included PNG sizes, the ICO, the fit used, and what is not included in the result panel.

How to use Favicon Generator

  1. Upload your logo or source image into Favicon Generator.
  2. Choose Cover or Contain and a background color in Favicon Generator.
  3. Click Process to build the favicon ZIP (real .ico + PNG sizes + README).
  4. Review the result panel — the PNG sizes, the ICO, the fit, and what is not included — then download the ZIP.

Why use Favicon Generator

Real .ico included

Favicon Generator writes a genuine multi-size favicon.ico, not just PNGs.

Fit you control

Cover crops to a square; Contain shows the whole image padded — your choice.

Honest scope

Called a practical pack, not "complete"; Favicon Generator lists what is and is not included.

Private by design

Favicon Generator runs in your browser; nothing is uploaded.

Common uses for Favicon Generator

Adding a site favicon

Generate the .ico and PNG sizes most sites need.

Use Contain to keep the whole logo visible.

Any-device creation

Build from a phone, tablet, or computer browser with the image staying local.

Frequently asked questions

Are my images uploaded to a server by Favicon Generator?

No. Favicon Generator builds the favicon ZIP in your browser, and your image is never sent to imgtoolsbase or any server.

Does Favicon Generator generate every favicon file a site could need?

It generates a practical set. Favicon Generator includes a real multi-size favicon.ico, common PNG sizes, and a README snippet, but not site.webmanifest, maskable icons, a Safari pinned-tab SVG, or browserconfig.xml.

Can I avoid cropping my logo?

Yes — choose Contain, and Favicon Generator shows the whole image padded to a square on your background color instead of cover-cropping it.

What sizes are in the ZIP?

A favicon.ico with 16, 32, and 48 px, plus PNGs at 16, 32, 48, 64, 128, 180, 192, and 512 px, and a README with example HTML.
