Favicon Generator – PNG to ICO & Website Icons

Create browser, Apple and Android icons from an image. Preview light and dark contexts, then download a complete favicon ZIP.

Favicon Generator turns an existing image into a downloadable favicon package for a website. Start with your artwork, compare how it looks in browser and home-screen previews, and save a ZIP containing icon files and installation references. Everything is generated locally in Chrome, so your source image does not need to be uploaded to a design service. 🖼️ Start with an image you already have Choose or drop an image. The generated package includes an ICO favicon and PNG icons made from that source. • Sources may be up to 10 MiB and 40 million pixels. • SVG is not accepted; export SVG artwork to a supported raster format before importing it. The tool uses your supplied image rather than generating a logo from text or emoji. For a crisp result across the package, use artwork that still reads clearly at small sizes and has enough resolution for the larger icons. Small sources can look soft when enlarged. 📐 Choose how the artwork fills the icon • Fit whole image keeps the complete picture inside the available area. • Crop to square uses a centered crop to fill the square instead. Change the source if you want different artwork, then review the previews before downloading. The interface keeps this choice close to the result: there is no separate design editor or export-settings wizard. Existing transparency is handled as part of the source image, while platform-specific icon treatments can add the background or padding required by that output. 🔍 Preview small icons in context The preview area includes browser, search, iOS and Android contexts. Small 16, 32 and 48 pixel previews show how the browser favicon reads at actual icon sizes. Light and Dark switches change the browser and search preview surfaces so you can inspect contrast. These are local visual examples, not screenshots of your live website or a guarantee of how a search engine will display it. Look for symbols that disappear, cramped details and edges that become unclear when the icon is small. 📦 Download a package with 32 files • The archive contains browser PNG icons and a favicon.ico with 16, 32 and 48 pixel images. • It also includes Apple icons, Android icons, Windows tile images and browserconfig.xml. • Modern additions include apple-touch-icon.png at 180 pixels and ordinary and maskable Android icons at 512 pixels. • A manifest.json supplies Android icon entries, and favicon-tags.html and README.txt provide installation references. The files are generated together from the chosen source and fit setting, keeping the collection consistent. 🌐 Use the files in your website project 1. Select Download archive when the previews look right. 2. Extract the ZIP, add the relevant assets to your website project and review the included HTML and instructions for your setup. The extension prepares the files; it does not publish them to a host, edit a live site's pages or verify deployment. Different websites may need different paths or integration steps. Keep the package alongside the project assets so you can choose the appropriate browser, touch and home-screen images without creating each size manually. 💻 Local generation and image behavior This favicon maker works offline after installation, without accounts, analytics or an online image service. It requests no host permissions and processes the chosen image on your device. Closing the page clears the current image and previews. Animated input uses the browser's decoded frame rather than creating animated icons. Creating many sizes necessarily resizes the artwork, so review the small previews as well as the larger ones. Save the ZIP before leaving the page, and retain the original artwork if you expect to make another favicon package later.
