What does the Favicon Generator do?

A favicon is the small icon in browser tabs, bookmarks and phone home screens. Design one from text (one or two letters, your colours, rounded or circular shape) or upload a square image. The tool generates a multi-size favicon.ico containing 16, 32 and 48 pixel images, plus PNGs at 180 (Apple touch icon), 192 and 512 pixels (Android and web app manifest).

Copy the ready-made HTML tags into your site’s .
