Frequently asked questions

Is my image uploaded to a server?

No. All conversion happens locally in your browser using Canvas. Your image never leaves your device.

ICO or PNG — which should I use?

ICO is the classic favicon format with the widest browser support, ideal for favicon.ico in your site root. PNG is sharper and suits modern sites, app icons and multi-size setups.

Which formats and sizes are supported?

PNG, JPG, GIF and WebP, up to 5 MB per image. Large images are scaled down automatically.

Why does my icon look cropped?

A favicon must be square, so the tool crops from the center. Use an original image where the subject is centered.

How do I add the icon to my website?

Put the downloaded favicon.ico in your site root and add one line to your HTML head: link rel="icon" href="/favicon.ico".
