Favicon Generator — image / text / emoji to a full favicon.ico pack
Make a complete website favicon online: upload an image, or generate one from text / emoji, and get a multi-resolution favicon.ico, all PNG sizes, apple-touch-icon, web manifest and ready-to-paste HTML code in one ZIP. Works on desktop, tablet & mobile — generated locally, nothing uploaded.
A favicon is the small icon shown in browser tabs, bookmarks and search results. A complete favicon set is more than one file: favicon.ico (containing 16/32/48 resolutions for taskbars and legacy browsers), favicon-16/32/48 PNGs, apple-touch-icon (180×180 for iOS home screens) and icon-192 / icon-512 for the PWA manifest. This tool generates all of them from one image — or from text / emoji — plus a site.webmanifest and the HTML snippet, packed into a ZIP you can drop into your site root. Everything runs locally in your browser; nothing is uploaded.

Favicon Generator FAQ
Browser tabs use 16×16, taskbars and desktop shortcuts use 32×32 or 48×48. ICO is a container format holding several resolutions in one file, so the system picks the right one; a single-size ico gets scaled and blurry elsewhere.
Unzip the pack into your site root, then paste the "HTML code" into the <head> of your pages — there is a one-click copy button on the page.
Yes — switch to the "Text / Emoji" tab, type 1-2 characters or an emoji, pick the background shape and colors, and it renders live.
No. Everything, including the .ico encoding, happens locally in your browser; neither the image nor the results touch a server.
