Frequently Asked Questions
How do I create a favicon from text or an emoji?+
Switch to the "From Text / Emoji" tab, type one or two characters (a letter, initials, or an emoji), then pick a font, text color, and background color. The live preview updates instantly and you can download ready-to-use PNG icons.
Can I turn my logo or image into a favicon?+
Yes. Open the "From Image" tab and upload any PNG, JPG, or SVG. The image is scaled to a square canvas and you can place a solid background behind transparent areas, then download every favicon size.
What favicon sizes does it generate?+
It exports PNG icons at 16x16 and 32x32 (browser tabs), 180x180 (Apple touch icon for iOS home screens), and 512x512 (PWA / Android). The "Download All" button saves every size at once.
Is my image uploaded to a server?+
No. The favicon is rendered entirely in your browser using the HTML canvas API. Your image and the generated icons never leave your device, which makes it safe for unreleased logos and branding.
How do I add the favicon to my website?+
Download the PNG files into your site root, then copy the provided <link rel="icon"> and <link rel="apple-touch-icon"> tags into the <head> of your HTML. Use the Copy button to grab the full snippet.
