Understanding This Tool
Learn how favicons work, why they matter, and how to create the best results.
What Is a Favicon?
A favicon is the small icon displayed next to a website's title in browser tabs, bookmarks, browser history, and other browser interfaces. Although tiny, it plays an important role in branding and helps visitors quickly recognise your website.
Private Processing
Images are processed entirely within your browser using the HTML5 Canvas API. Nothing is uploaded, transmitted, or stored, keeping your source image private.
Best Practices For Favicons
A clear favicon helps strengthen your website's identity. Because favicons are displayed at very small sizes, simple graphics generally work much better than detailed artwork.
- Use square source images for the best results.
- Keep logos simple and easy to recognise.
- Use strong colour contrast for better visibility.
- PNG images usually produce the cleanest results.
- Test your favicon in multiple browsers.
- Replace generic browser icons with your own branding.
Whether you're launching a new website or refreshing an existing brand, a custom favicon is a small detail that helps create a more polished and professional experience.
