JPG / PNG to Favicon Converter (.ICO)

How to Convert JPG, PNG, or WebP to Website Favicon (.ICO & .PNG) Instantly

A Favicon (short for Favorite Icon) is the small icon that appears on browser tabs, bookmarks, and mobile app home screens. Converting your logo into standard 16x16, 32x32 (.ICO) and Apple Touch Icon (180x180 .PNG) formats is essential for professional web design, SEO branding, and progressive web apps (PWAs). Our free online tool converts any image instantly in your browser with zero server uploads.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Why should I use .ICO instead of standard .PNG for favicons?

While modern browsers support .PNG favicons, standard .ICO format remains the universal standard for backward compatibility, older Internet Explorer / Edge browsers, and RSS readers. Our tool generates both!

Is my image uploaded to any external server?

No. 100% of the conversion process is performed locally on your device using HTML5 Canvas. Your logo or image never leaves your computer.

What image formats are supported?

You can upload JPG, JPEG, PNG, or WebP images. We recommend uploading a square image with a transparent background for the cleanest results.
