What size should a favicon be?

Ship 16 and 32 px for browser tabs, 180 px for iOS home screens, and 192 and 512 px for Android and PWA installs. This tool exports all of them from one source image.

Do I still need a favicon.ico file?

No. Every browser released in the last decade reads PNG favicons through link tags. An .ico file is only needed for very old versions of Internet Explorer.

My logo is not square. What happens?

It is centre-cropped to a square. For full control, crop it first with the Image Cropper at 1:1, then bring it back here.

Favicon Generator

Drop a square logo and get every icon a modern site needs: browser tab favicons at 16, 32, 48, and 96 px, an Apple touch icon at 180 px, and Android or PWA icons at 192 and 512 px. Add padding and a background colour if your logo needs breathing room, preview each size at its real pixel dimensions, then copy the link tags for your HTML head.
