Free Favicon Generator — Create Your Website Icon Online

A favicon is the small icon that appears in browser tabs, bookmarks, browser history, and on the home screen when users save your website as a web app. ExperToolBox's favicon generator lets you create a professional favicon from any image or emoji in seconds, downloading it in all the sizes you need.

Upload your logo or brand image and the tool automatically scales it to 16×16, 32×32, 64×64 and 128×128 pixel versions. Alternatively, pick an emoji or letter and customise the background and text colour for a simple but distinctive favicon — ideal for personal projects, tools, and developer portfolios.

What size should a favicon be?

Modern browsers use 32×32px as the standard favicon size, displayed in tabs. 16×16px is the legacy size still used by some older browsers and contexts. For Apple touch icons (when users add your site to their iOS home screen), 180×180px is recommended. This tool generates 16, 32, 64 and 128px sizes — the 128px version is suitable as a base for Apple touch icons.

How to add a favicon to your website

After downloading, upload the favicon files to your website's root directory and add the following lines inside the <head> tag of your HTML:

Frequently Asked Questions

What format should a favicon be?
PNG is the most widely supported modern format and works in all current browsers. The old ICO format (which contains multiple sizes in one file) is supported but no longer necessary for modern browsers. This tool generates PNG files which work perfectly.
Why does my favicon not update in the browser?
Browsers aggressively cache favicons. To force an update, clear your browser cache (Ctrl+Shift+Delete), or append a version parameter to the favicon URL: favicon.png?v=2
Can I use an emoji as a favicon?
Yes — emoji favicons are increasingly popular for personal projects and tools. They're distinctive, immediately recognisable, and require no design work. Pick an emoji that relates to your site's purpose.
