Favicon Generator
A letter or emoji, a color and a shape — your site favicon is ready instantly.
What is a favicon and why does it matter?
A favicon is the small icon shown next to a page title in a browser tab, in search results, and in bookmark lists. Though tiny, it is one of the first visual signals of a site's identity, and it helps users recognize your site quickly among several open tabs. Missing a favicon — or using the browser's default icon — makes a site feel slightly unfinished and less professional.
Why a simple SVG favicon?
An SVG favicon is just a few lines of code, weighs almost nothing, and — unlike raster image formats — stays perfectly crisp at any size, whether in a browser tab or on a phone home screen. For a quick prototype or a personal project, it is the fastest way to get a presentable icon without opening any design software.
Frequently asked questions
Is an actual file provided for download?
This tool only generates SVG code and a ready-to-paste link tag; copy the code and save it yourself as a .svg file in your project.
Why use SVG instead of PNG or ICO?
An SVG favicon stays crisp at any size with no pixelation, and it's supported by all modern browsers.
Can I enter more than two characters?
It's best to use 1–2 letters or a single emoji; longer text doesn't fit well in the small favicon space and becomes hard to read.
What if a browser doesn't support SVG favicons?
For broader support, it's a good idea to also add a PNG or ICO fallback favicon alongside favicon.svg on your site.
