Complete tool guide

Generate a complete favicon pack from one image

A favicon pack supplies browsers and devices with appropriately sized square icons. This tool creates a multi-image ICO plus common PNG files, a web app manifest, and ready-to-use link tags.

Contain preserves the whole source with padding; cover fills the square and crops the center.

Why use this tool?

  • Create a valid multi-size favicon.ico.
  • Include Apple and Android icons.
  • Download one organized ZIP.
  • Preserve transparent backgrounds.

Common use cases

  • New websites.
  • Brand refreshes.
  • Web apps and PWAs.
  • Personal portfolios.

How to use it

  1. 1

    Choose a clear source image.

  2. 2

    Select contain or cover.

  3. 3

    Choose transparent or solid padding.

  4. 4

Included sizes

The ICO contains 16, 32, 48, and 256 pixel PNG payloads. The ZIP also includes 180, 192, and 512 pixel PNGs.

Source artwork

Simple bold artwork reads better than fine detail at 16 pixels. Start with a square source of at least 512 × 512 when possible.

Practical tips for better results

  • Avoid tiny text.
  • Test against light and dark browser chrome.
  • Use transparency only when edge contrast remains strong.
  • Replace blank manifest names before publishing.
