Centre-crop any image into a favicon.ico plus the PNG sizes browsers and phones ask for, and download them as one ZIP.
Icons are rendered in this tab. Nothing is uploaded.
The ICO, PNG sizes, manifest and link tags appear here.
The generated ICO and PNG previews appear here. Sizes: 16, 32, 48, 64, 180, 192 and 512 px.
Your file is never sent to a server. It is read and processed by your own browser, and the results are not stored.
A modern site needs more than one file. Browsers still request /favicon.ico by default, iOS uses an apple-touch-icon, and Android and progressive web apps read a manifest with 192 and 512 pixel icons. The ZIP groups all of them with the link tags and manifest already written.
The ICO is a container, not a single bitmap. This tool writes four PNG entries into it at 16, 32, 48 and 64 pixels, so the operating system can choose the size it needs without scaling a tiny icon up.
A favicon is square. Stretching a wide photo into a square makes the subject look wrong at every size, so the tool takes the largest centred square first and scales that. The trade-off is honest: anything outside the square is not in the icon.
Small icons lose detail quickly. A face or a two-letter mark survives at 16 pixels; a busy photograph becomes a coloured smudge. Check the preview at 32 pixels before committing.
No. Favicon Generator from Image runs in your browser, and the file is read there rather than sent to a server for processing. Our host still sees ordinary page-request metadata, which is described on the privacy page.
Yes, Favicon Generator from Image is free, with no paid tier, no account, and no watermark added to your output. The limits are technical rather than commercial: file size, page count and supported formats are listed on this page.
Favicon Generator from Image supports .jpg, .jpeg, .png, .webp files up to 25MB directly in your browser.
At minimum favicon.ico at the site root and the 32×32 PNG beside it. The ZIP also includes a 180×180 apple-touch-icon.png for iOS home screens, 192 and 512 PNG icons for the web manifest, and a site.webmanifest with the paths already filled in.
No. The tool centre-crops to a square before scaling, so the icon is never stretched. If the important part of the picture is near an edge, crop it to a square first so the centre-crop keeps the subject.
Yes. The ICO file contains 16, 32, 48 and 64 pixel PNG entries in one container, which is the format modern browsers and Windows read. Each entry is produced from your image at that exact size rather than resized from one bitmap.
