Favicon Generator
Give one square image and get back the full set of icons a website needs — the small favicons, the Apple touch icon, the Android sizes, and a proper multi-size favicon.ico.

How to use the Favicon Generator
Add a source image
Drop a square image, ideally 512×512 or larger. A non-square image is centre-cropped to a square rather than squashed.
Generate the set
Press Generate. Six PNG sizes and a multi-size .ico are produced in a moment.
Download and install
Download everything as a ZIP, put the files in your site's root, and reference them from your HTML head.
Where your files are processed
Your files are processed locally in your browser and are not uploaded to our servers.
The Favicon Generator runs as JavaScript on the page you are reading. When you choose a file, the browser hands it to that code directly — it is never put into a network request, so there is no upload to cancel, no copy sitting in a queue somewhere, and nothing for us to delete afterwards. We could not see your file if we wanted to.
You can verify this rather than take our word for it: open your browser’s developer tools, switch to the Network tab, and run the tool. You will see no request carrying your file. Better still, once the page has loaded you can disconnect from the internet entirely and the Favicon Generator will keep working — which it could not do if it depended on a server.
To be exact about what doesleave the page: like the rest of this site, it loads analytics, which record that a tool was opened and whether it succeeded. Those events carry the tool’s name and a duration — never a file, a file name, or anything read out of your file. The tool panel above is also excluded from session recording, so nothing shown inside it is captured either.
