❓ FAQ
What is a favicon?
A favicon (favorite icon) is the small image that appears in browser tabs, bookmarks, history, and recently added to mobile home screens. Modern websites need multiple favicon sizes: 16×16 and 32×32 for browser tabs, 180×180 for iOS home screens, and 192×192/512×512 for Android home screens and PWAs.
How do I use the generated favicon?
Download the PNG files and upload them to your website's root folder. Then paste the HTML snippet this tool generates into your <head> section. That's it — refresh your site and the favicon will appear in browser tabs.
Is my input private?
Yes. The favicon is generated entirely in your browser using the HTML5 Canvas API. Your text, emoji, or image never leaves your device. Works offline after the page first loads.
Can I use an emoji as my favicon?
Yes! Paste any emoji in the text field. Modern browsers render emoji natively, so a single emoji makes a surprisingly effective and instantly-recognizable favicon. Popular choices: 🚀 for tech, 📝 for blogs, 🎨 for design, 🔐 for security.
What sizes do I need?
For a complete modern setup: 16×16 (legacy browser tabs), 32×32 (high-DPI tabs), 180×180 (iOS home screen, apple-touch-icon), 192×192 and 512×512 (Android / PWA). This tool generates all of them at once.
Can I use a custom background color?
Yes. Pick any background color with the color picker. Common choices: match your brand color for recognition, pure white for a clean look, or transparent (PNG) if you want the browser to show it on any background.
