## About

### One icon, every size

Modern sites need favicons in several sizes — a tiny 16px icon for browser tabs, a 180px Apple touch icon for iOS home screens, and 192px and 512px icons for Android and PWA manifests. This generator renders your image or emoji to each size on a canvas, so you get crisp icons in one place without design software.

### Emoji favicons in seconds

No logo yet? Pick an emoji, choose a background colour and rounded corners, and you have a distinctive favicon instantly. Prefer your own artwork? Upload a square image and it's scaled to every size. Everything is generated in your browser, so your images never leave your device.

## FAQ

### What favicon sizes do I need?

At minimum a 32×32 for browser tabs, a 180×180 Apple touch icon for iOS, and 192×192 and 512×512 icons for Android and PWA manifests. This tool exports all of them.

### Can I make a favicon from an emoji?

Yes. Switch to emoji mode, type any emoji, pick a background and rounded corners, and download it in every size.

### Should the source image be square?

Yes — a square image gives the best result since favicons are square. Non-square images are scaled to fit.

### Are my images uploaded?

No. Everything is rendered locally in your browser and nothing is sent to a server.
