How to make a favicon
- Drop a square image (a logo or icon works best). Non-square images are cropped to a square automatically.
- Toolyard instantly renders every size you need. Click Download all to save them.
- Copy the HTML snippet into your site's
<head>and upload the PNG files to your site root.
Which favicon sizes do you need?
- 16 & 32px — browser tabs and bookmarks.
- 180px — Apple touch icon (iPhone/iPad home screen).
- 192 & 512px — Android and Progressive Web App icons.
Is it private and safe?
Yes. Toolyard builds your favicons inside your browser on your own device. Your image is never uploaded anywhere.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need an .ico file?
Modern browsers accept PNG favicons via the HTML tags provided, so a separate .ico is no longer required.
What image works best?
A simple, square logo or icon. Fine detail disappears at 16px, so keep it bold.
Are my images uploaded?
No. Everything runs on your device and nothing is sent anywhere.
Is it free?
Completely free, no sign-up.
