Favicon Generator

The Favicon Generator takes a single SVG source and produces the full family of favicon assets browsers, operating systems, and mobile launchers expect — the classic 16x16 and 32x32 sizes, larger 48x48 and 64x64 raster versions, the 180x180 apple-touch-icon for iOS home screens, and Android/PWA maskable icons at 192x192 and 512x512. Starting from a vector source means every exported size is rasterized cleanly rather than upscaled from a small bitmap.

Working from SVG is the key advantage: the tool renders your scalable artwork at each target resolution so edges stay sharp even at tiny pixel dimensions, where hinting matters most. It typically emits PNGs for the modern sizes, an .ico container for legacy Internet Explorer and Windows shortcuts, and the JSON-based web app manifest plus the HTML <link> tags you paste into your document head.

Use it whenever you launch a site, rebrand, or add PWA support, since browser tabs, bookmark bars, pinned shortcuts, and the Android install banner all read different files. Simplify the artwork for the smallest sizes — fine detail and thin strokes vanish at 16x16 — and consider a bolder, higher-contrast mark for the favicon than your full logo lockup.

For Android maskable icons, keep important content inside the central safe zone (about 80 percent) because launchers crop icons into circles, squircles, and rounded squares. After generating, drop the files at your site root or a dedicated path, wire up the manifest's theme_color and background_color, and verify in each browser's dev tools that the right sizes resolve without 404s.
