SVG to ICO

Turn your SVG logo into a proper favicon (ICO file). We generate multiple sizes in one file so it looks sharp everywhere.

What sizes do you need?

A good favicon.ico should include multiple resolutions:

  • 16x16 - Browser tabs (the tiny one)
  • 32x32 - Taskbar and bookmarks
  • 48x48 - Windows desktop shortcuts
  • 256x256 - High-DPI displays and Windows 10+ (optional but nice)

ICO files can contain all these sizes in one file - the browser picks the right one automatically.

How to add it to your site

Put the favicon.ico file in your site's root folder and add this to your HTML head:

<link rel="icon" href="/favicon.ico">

That's it. Browsers look for /favicon.ico by default, but the link tag makes it explicit.

But wait, what about SVG favicons?

Modern browsers actually support SVG favicons now with <link rel="icon" type="image/svg+xml" href="/icon.svg">. The advantage: one file that scales perfectly to any size. The catch: older browsers don't support it, so you should still have an ICO fallback.
