What is a Favicon Generator?
A favicon generator is an online tool that takes an image you upload and converts it into all the standard favicon sizes a website needs. Favicons show up in browser tabs, bookmarks, phone home screens, and search results. Having the right sizes in place makes your website feel polished and professional.
ContentAnchor's Favicon Generator works directly in your browser. You upload your logo or image, set your preferences, and the tool instantly creates all the sizes you need including the Apple Touch Icon for iOS devices. No software needed and no account required.
How to generate a favicon?
- Upload your image: Click the upload area or drag and drop your logo or image file. PNG, JPG, SVG, and WEBP files all work fine.
- Set the background: Choose a transparent background if your logo already has one, or pick a solid color to fill the canvas behind your image.
- Adjust the padding: Use the padding slider to add some breathing room around your logo inside the favicon. This is especially useful if your image has very tight edges.
- Generate your favicons: Click the Generate Favicons button and the tool will create all six standard sizes at once including the 180x180 Apple Touch Icon.
- Download and add to your site: Download individual sizes or use the Download All button. Then add the HTML snippet shown on the results page to your website's head tag.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Is this favicon generator free?
Yes, it is completely free to use. You can generate as many favicons as you need without creating an account or paying anything.
What image formats can I upload?
You can upload PNG, JPG, JPEG, WEBP, and SVG files. For the best quality results we recommend uploading a square PNG image with a transparent background.
What sizes does this tool generate?
The tool generates favicons at 16x16, 32x32, 48x48, 64x64, 128x128, and 180x180 pixels. The 180x180 size is specifically the Apple Touch Icon used when someone saves your website to their iPhone or iPad home screen.
Do I need an ICO file or will PNG work?
PNG favicons are supported by all modern browsers and are actually preferred over ICO for most use cases today. You only really need an ICO file if you need to support very old browsers like IE8 or earlier.
Is my image uploaded to a server?
No. All processing happens locally in your browser. Your image is never sent to any server, so your files stay completely private on your own device.
Where do I put the favicon files on my website?
Place the favicon files in the root folder of your website and add the link tags to the head section of your HTML. The tool shows you the exact code snippet to copy and paste once you generate your favicons.
