How this tool works
What it does
PNG to ICO builds a real multi-size .ico from a PNG image.
Sizes
Pick the largest size; every standard size up to it is included.
Fit
Each size is cover-cropped to a square, so a logo may be cropped.
Privacy & metadata
In-browser only; nothing is uploaded. Re-encoding through the browser canvas removes EXIF, GPS, and other metadata.
PNG to ICO in your browser
PNG to ICO creates a real, multi-size .ico from a PNG image in your browser — the file is never uploaded to a server.
Pick the largest icon size and PNG to ICO generates a multi-size .ico containing every standard size up to it (16, 32, 48, 64, 128, 256), which gives better compatibility than a single size. Each size is cover-cropped to a square, so a logo or mark may be cropped.
Transparency in the PNG source is preserved in the generated ICO when present; cover-cropping may reframe it. Re-encoding through the browser canvas removes EXIF, GPS, and other metadata.
