Favicon generator: a favicon from an image, PNG or SVG
This favicon generator turns a logo into an ICO with the sizes browsers ask for. It is a favicon generator free of charge and sign-up, and a favicon generator from image: png to favicon, JPG, WebP, or a favicon generator from svg, which gives the crispest result because it is drawn fresh at every size.
As a favicon maker and favicon creator it runs in your browser. A favicon is the little icon in the browser tab, bookmarks and search results.
Favicon size: which sizes do I need?
A favicon size of 16 x 16 and 32 x 32 in an ICO covers browser tabs, 48 x 48 covers Windows, 180 x 180 PNG is the Apple touch icon, and an SVG favicon scales to all of them in current browsers.
Favicon generator from text
Type the letters or initials in the SVG creator, save the SVG, and drop it here: text drawn as a vector makes the sharpest small icon.
Best favicon generator?
The best favicon generator is the one that starts from a clean square logo. Tools like realfavicongenerator add a full set of HTML tags and manifest; this one gives you the icon files quickly, with nothing uploaded.

Why it matters
Lossless by default
Vector optimisation only rounds coordinates and strips editor metadata. The geometry is unchanged unless you lower the precision yourself.
Real reductions
Redundant closing segments, editor namespaces, comments and over-precise coordinates typically account for a third to a half of an exported SVG.
Transparency handled properly
JPEG has no alpha channel. We fill white behind transparent areas rather than letting them encode as black.
See what changed
Before and after byte counts, and the optimised file rendered, so nothing is thrown away silently.
Questions
How do I make a favicon from a PNG?
Upload a square PNG (at least 256 x 256), download the ICO, and link it with <link rel="icon" href="/favicon.ico">.
Can I use an SVG as a favicon?
Yes, in current browsers. Keep an ICO as well for older ones.
Will optimising break my SVG?
Editor-specific attributes are removed, so the file may no longer round-trip perfectly into Inkscape or Illustrator with their own state intact. The rendered result is identical.
How much smaller?
Typically 30 to 50 percent for an exported SVG, more if it came out of a design tool with metadata attached.
Does it change my colours?
No. Colour values are left exactly as they are.
