10 PNG sizes + ICO + manifest + HTML snippet, all in one ZIP.
A favicon generator turns one source image into the full set of icon files modern websites need: 10 PNG sizes (16 for browser tabs through 512 for PWA manifests), a multi-resolution favicon.ico, site.webmanifest for PWAs, browserconfig.xml for Windows tiles, and a ready-to-paste HTML snippet. Everything packaged as a ZIP, ready to drop into your site root.
Most generators give you 4-5 sizes and skip the manifest files. We ship all 10 PNG sizes plus the supporting files needed for iOS home screens, Android Chrome, Windows tiles, and PWA installs. Everything runs in your browser. Your source image never uploads anywhere.
10 PNGs + .ico + manifest + browserconfig + HTML snippet, ZIP'd. Most free generators ship 4-5 PNGs and call it done.
site.webmanifest is generated with theme color, background color, and all icon refs. Drop in and your site qualifies for Add-to-Home-Screen.
realfavicongenerator.net uploads to their server. We process locally. Your unreleased logos and design drafts stay private.
Unlimited generations. The competing free tier on most sites watermarks or limits features.

10 PNG sizes (16, 32, 48, 64, 96, 128, 180, 192, 256, 512) plus a multi-resolution favicon.ico containing 16+32+48. Covers Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge, iOS home screens, Android Chrome, Windows tiles, and PWA manifest icons.
Everything as a ZIP: 10 PNGs, favicon.ico, site.webmanifest (PWA manifest), browserconfig.xml (Windows tiles), HEAD-snippet.html (paste into your head), and a README. Drop the contents into your site root, paste the snippet, done.
Modern browsers can use the .ico for tab favicons. The PNGs are still recommended because some platforms (iOS home screens, Android, PWAs) require specific sizes. The full set ensures your icon looks crisp on every device.
Both work. The generator covers-fits to a square at every size, so a portrait photo will get cropped to square. For best results, upload a square master at 512x512 or larger so each size is sharp.
SVG favicons are supported by Chrome, Firefox, Safari (modern). They're great for crisp rendering at any size. We don't auto-convert PNG to SVG (PNGs are raster, SVGs are vector -needs a separate vectorize step). If you have an SVG master, use the SVG to PNG tool to make raster fallbacks.
favicon.ico is a Windows multi-resolution format that browsers all understand. PNGs are individual files for specific sizes. We ship both because some platforms only check .ico, others only check PNGs at specific sizes. Belt and suspenders.
Upload the bundle to your site root (where index.html lives). Paste the HEAD-snippet.html into your site's head element. Reload, hard-refresh. Verify in DevTools > Application > Manifest.
Three common causes. (1) Browser cache -hard refresh (Ctrl+Shift+R). (2) Favicon files in the wrong path -they need to be at the same level as index.html. (3) MIME type wrong -your server should serve .ico as image/x-icon and .png as image/png.
Yes. The whole tool runs in your browser. Image bytes are read by FileReader, decoded by the browser, resized via Canvas, and packed into a ZIP -all locally. No upload, no server, no log.
10 PNG sizes, .ico, manifest, browserconfig, head snippet. Free unlimited.
