How to create a favicon

  1. Choose your logo (PNG or SVG at 512 × 512 px or larger works best).
  2. Choose a transparent or solid background, padding and rounded corners.
  3. Check the previews at each size.
  4. Download the ZIP, upload the files to your site’s root folder and paste the code into your <head>.

Tips for a sharp favicon

  • Keep it simple: at 16 × 16 pixels, a single letter or symbol reads better than a full logo.
  • Use a solid background if your logo is thin or light, so it shows on dark browser tabs.
  • On WordPress? You can upload the 512 px icon under Appearance > Customise > Site Identity > Site Icon instead.

Frequently asked questions

What files are included?

favicon.ico (16, 32 and 48 px), 16 and 32 px PNGs, a 180 px Apple touch icon, 192 and 512 px Android icons, site.webmanifest and installation instructions.

Why does the Apple icon have a background?

iPhones show transparent areas as black, so the Apple icon always gets a solid background.

How long until my new favicon shows?

Browsers cache favicons, so it can take a while. Try a hard refresh or a private window to check.
