How it works

How to make a favicon from a logo

Three steps, all on your PC. Nothing is uploaded.

  1. Open Tools › Images › Website favicon and choose your logo.

  2. Set the name and background colour.

  3. Copy the folder to your site and paste the tags from favicon-tags.html.

What you get

Built for the real document.

  • The whole set

    favicon.ico, 16 and 32 px PNGs, the 180 px Apple touch icon and 192 and 512 px Android icons.

  • Tags ready to paste

    favicon-tags.html holds the lines for your page’s head.

  • A manifest that fits

    site.webmanifest with the name, a short name and a theme colour from your icon.

  • SVG kept

    SVG logos also get favicon.svg for browsers that prefer it.

Your choices

Every choice, before it starts.

The Convert images dialog, drawn from the app with its defaults selected. The notes say what each choice does.

Behind the Apple touch icon.

The folder will contain

  • favicon.ico 16, 32, 48
  • favicon-16x16.png 16 px
  • favicon-32x32.png 32 px
  • apple-touch-icon.png 180 px
  • android-chrome-192x192.png 192 px
  • android-chrome-512x512.png 512 px
  • site.webmanifest Name and colours
  • favicon-tags.html Lines to paste

Saved as folders like “logo (favicon)”.

Under the hood

How it decides.

What it reads, what it saves, and the rules it follows, taken from the app itself.

Saves as

  • logo (favicon), a folder
  • favicon.svg inside too, when the logo is an SVG

Never over another file, and never over your original.

  • A manifest that fits

    The short name is kept to 12 characters on a word boundary, and the theme colour is your icon’s main colour.

  • Apple on a background

    iPhones do not show transparency, so the touch icon sits on the background you choose.

  • Classic sizes in one file

    favicon.ico holds 16, 32 and 48 pixels for older browsers and Windows.

Why not an online converter?

Online tools ask for your file first. Podalls Convert never does.

Good to know

Honest limits.

What this tool does not do, said plainly.

  • A square SVG or a large PNG gives the sharpest result at every size.

Website favicon, answered.

Another question? Everything about Podalls Convert.

Does it upload my logo anywhere?

No. The whole set is made on your PC, like every other tool in Podalls Convert.

How do I add the favicon to my website?

Copy the files in the folder to your site’s root, then paste the lines from favicon-tags.html into the <head> of your pages.

What size should my logo be?

An SVG, or a picture at least 512 × 512 pixels. Smaller pictures have to be enlarged for the 512-pixel Android icon, which softens it.
