What a favicon is and why your site needs one

A favicon is the small icon in the browser tab, bookmarks and mobile home screen. A site without one looks unfinished and is harder to spot among open tabs. A modern site ideally ships a set: favicon.ico, an SVG, and an apple-touch-icon for iOS.

How to install the favicon

Upload the downloaded files to your site’s root folder and paste the copied HTML into the page head. Starting a site from scratch? Walk through our EU hosting guide and ordering steps.

Frequently asked questions

Which favicon format should I use today?

A combination works best: favicon.ico (for older browsers and default behavior), SVG (sharp at any size) and apple-touch-icon.png 180×180 for adding to the iPhone home screen. This generator produces the ICO and the needed PNGs.

Why does favicon.ico contain several sizes?

ICO is a container — it holds 32×32 and 16×16 so the browser picks the crisp variant per context (tab vs. bar). Our tool bundles both sizes automatically.

Do you upload my image anywhere?

No. The icon is drawn on a canvas in your browser and the files are created locally — nothing is sent to a server.
