About favicons
A favicon is the tiny icon that shows up in a browser tab, a bookmark, the history list and the home screen of a phone. Modern sites need it in several sizes: 16, 32 and 48 px for classic desktop tabs, 64 px for high-DPI displays, 180 px for the Apple touch icon iPhones and iPads use, and 192 px and 512 px for Android and Progressive Web App manifests. This tool draws each one on a square canvas and scales your image to fit inside it, preserving the aspect ratio and centring the artwork with transparent padding, so nothing is stretched or cropped.
Like every Imagloo tool, your favicons are generated entirely in your browser with the Canvas API. The image you add is never uploaded to a server, which means the tool is private by design, works offline, and is instant even for large source files.
Frequently asked questions
What size image should I start with?
Use the largest square version you have — ideally 512 px or bigger. The generator scales it down to every size cleanly. Smaller sources still work, but very small images can look soft at 192 and 512 px.
Which files do I actually need?
For a typical website, 16, 32 and 180 px cover desktop browsers and Apple devices, while 192 and 512 px are referenced from a web app manifest. Download the full set and keep whichever ones your setup uses.
Why is the padding transparent?
Transparent padding lets a non-square logo sit cleanly on any tab colour. If you'd rather have a solid backdrop, tick the background-colour option and pick a colour.
Does it upload my image?
No. Everything is processed locally on your device with the Canvas API — your image never leaves your browser.
