Frequently Asked Questions

How do I make a favicon from a PNG?
Upload your PNG image (preferably a square logo) to this tool. It will automatically wrap the image data into the ICO format, which is the standard requirement for website favicons.
Does this converter preserve transparency?
Yes! Our converter maintains the alpha channel (transparency) of your original PNG file. This is crucial for favicons so they look good on both light and dark browser tabs.
What is the best size for a favicon?
While ICO files can contain multiple sizes, a standard single-image ICO works well for most web purposes. We recommend starting with a high-quality PNG (at least 256x256) for the best results.
Can I use the generated ICO on WordPress or Wix?
Absolutely. The .ico file generated is fully compatible with all major website builders, CMS platforms, and custom HTML websites.
Is this tool free for commercial use?
Yes, you can use this tool to generate favicons for both personal and commercial projects without any cost or attribution required.
Is my logo uploaded to your server?
No. The conversion happens entirely in your browser using JavaScript. Your intellectual property never leaves your device.
