 FAQ

What is a favicon and why do websites need one?

A favicon (favorite icon) is a small icon associated with a website that appears in browser tabs, bookmarks, history lists, and search results. Favicons help users quickly identify and locate tabs among many open pages. Without a favicon, browsers display a generic icon, making your site harder to find and appearing less professional. Modern browsers support multiple favicon sizes for different contexts — from tiny 16×16 tab icons to larger 192×192 icons used on mobile home screens.
What is the difference between ICO, PNG, and SVG favicon formats?

ICO is the traditional favicon format that can contain multiple sizes in a single file and has universal browser support including legacy browsers. PNG favicons offer better compression and quality but require separate files for each size. SVG favicons are vector-based, meaning they scale perfectly to any size without quality loss and support features like dark mode adaptation, but browser support is still growing. Most modern websites use a combination — an ICO file for legacy support and PNG files declared via link tags for modern browsers.
What sizes should favicons be and why are there so many?

Different platforms and contexts require different favicon sizes. The classic 16×16 is used in browser tabs, 32×32 for taskbar shortcuts, 48×48 for Windows site icons, 180×180 (apple-touch-icon) for iOS home screens, and 192×192 or 512×512 for Android PWA icons. Each size serves a specific purpose — using too small an icon in a large context results in blurry rendering, while a large icon wastes bandwidth in small contexts. Providing all recommended sizes ensures your site looks sharp everywhere.
