Text to Favicon
Create text-based favicons with 1500+ Google Fonts. Choose font weights, colors, and add solid or gradient backgrounds. Ideal for simple letter-based brand icons.
Emoji Favicon
Pick from hundreds of emojis across 12 categories including all country flags. Add colored backgrounds with presets or custom gradients for a polished look.

Understanding Favicons
Favicons are small icons that represent your website across browsers, bookmarks, home screens, and app launchers. A complete favicon set ensures your brand looks professional and recognizable everywhere users encounter your site.
The ICO Format
The ICO format bundles multiple sizes (16x16, 32x32, 48x48) into one file. While modern browsers support PNG favicons, ICO remains essential for maximum compatibility with older browsers and certain desktop applications.
PNG Icons
Modern browsers prefer PNG favicons for their crisp quality and transparency support. Each size serves a purpose: 16px and 32px for browser tabs, 180px for iOS, and 192px/512px for Android and PWAs.
Web App Manifest
The site.webmanifest file defines how your site appears when installed as a PWA. It specifies icons, theme colors, display mode, and other metadata that browsers use to create an app-like experience.
SVG Favicons
Safari's pinned tab feature uses a monochrome SVG icon. Modern browsers are also beginning to support SVG favicons directly, offering infinite scalability and smaller file sizes.
