What favicon sizes do you need in 2026?

Ship four files and a snippet. favicon.svg for modern browsers, favicon.ico as multi-size fallback, apple-touch-icon.png at 180x180 with an opaque background, and PWA icons at 192, 512, plus maskable 512 with ~80% safe zone. Point a web app manifest at the PNGs and paste the head tags this tool generates. Drop the old 16/32/57/72/96/144 PNG pile unless a specific platform still requires it. Full reasoning per file: the 2026 favicon sizes spec.

FAQ

Is the favicon generator free? Do I need an account?

Yes, it is free. No account or signup is required. Upload an SVG, download the ZIP, and paste the head snippet. Nothing is stored on our servers.

Do I need an existing logo first?

No. Upload any SVG mark. If you do not have one yet - or the 16px legibility check shows your mark falls apart at tab size - generate a mark-first logo with SVGnova, then re-run this tool.

What favicon sizes do I actually need in 2026?

A minimal correct set is: favicon.svg (modern browsers, optional dark-mode media), favicon.ico as a multi-size fallback, one 180x180 apple-touch-icon.png, PWA icons at 192 and 512 plus a maskable 512, and a web app manifest. Legacy piles of 16/32/57/72/96/144 PNGs are optional noise for most sites.

Does deriving icons cost credits?

No. This public tool is free and unlimited within fair-use rate limits. Inside the SVGnova studio, icon derivation from an accepted logo is also 0 credits - it is mechanical, not AI.

Why derive icons from one mark instead of generating them separately?

A favicon drawn independently from your logo tends to drift in style, colour, or shape. Deriving every size from the same SVG keeps the browser tab, home screen, and app install prompt visually consistent.

What formats and sizes do I get?

favicon.svg, favicon.ico (16/32/48), apple-touch-icon.png (180), PWA icons at 192x192 and 512x512, a maskable 512, manifest.json, README, and a ready-to-paste head snippet.

How do I add it to my site?

Unzip into your static root (or /public), keep the icons/ folder paths, and paste the generated head snippet into your document <head>. No build plugin required.

Why does my logo look muddy at 16px?

Most full logos carry hairlines, fine type, or too many colours. At 16x16 those details collapse into a blur. Simplify to a bold mark, or generate a logo designed to read at favicon size.

Need a logo first? AI logo generator builds a mark that survives 16px, then come back here for the icon pack. Add motion once your kit is ready.

Ship a consistent icon set

Free, no signup - derived from the SVG you upload, with a 16px legibility check so you see what tabs actually show.
