Everything you need to know about favicons
What is a favicon?
A favicon is the small icon shown in a browser tab, bookmark list, and (on mobile) when a site is added to a home screen. It needs to exist in several different sizes to look sharp across all those contexts, from a 16×16 tab icon up to a 512×512 app icon.
When you actually need this
- Launching a new website — a missing favicon shows a generic blank-page icon in browser tabs.
- Preparing for a home-screen icon on mobile, which needs a larger, dedicated size.
Start with a square, simple image
A favicon is shown very small, so a simple, high-contrast square logo works far better than a detailed image — fine text or intricate detail disappears entirely at 16×16 pixels.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which sizes are included?
16×16 and 32×32 (standard browser favicons), 180×180 (Apple touch icon), and 192×192 and 512×512 (Android Chrome and PWA icons) — the sizes covered by every current browser and app manifest.
Why PNG files instead of a single .ico file?
A .ico file is a separate container format bundling multiple resolutions, which isn't what most sites actually need today — every modern browser accepts a plain PNG as a favicon via the HTML tag, so you get simpler, directly-usable files instead.
What image should I upload?
A square image works best, since every output size is cropped to a square. A simple logo or icon reads much better at 16×16 than detailed artwork, which can turn into a blur at the smallest sizes.
