FAQ

What image format should I start with?
Use a square PNG or SVG image with a transparent background, at least 512×512 pixels, for best results at all sizes.
Where do I put the favicon files?
Place them in the root of your website or in a /icons/ folder, then add the provided <link> tags to your <head> section.
Do I need an ICO file?
The ICO format is still needed for Internet Explorer 11 compatibility and some browser tab implementations.
What favicon sizes do I need for modern browsers and mobile?
The minimum set is: 16×16 and 32×32 for browser tabs and address bars, 180×180 for Apple Touch Icon (iOS bookmarks and home screen), 192×192 and 512×512 for Android PWA icons (web app manifest), and 144×144 for Windows Metro tiles. Many implementations also include 48×48 (Windows taskbar) and 96×96 (Google TV). Use the HTML link tags: &lt;link rel="icon" sizes="32x32" href="favicon-32.png"&gt; and &lt;link rel="apple-touch-icon" href="apple-touch-icon.png"&gt;.
Should I use PNG or ICO format for my favicon?
Modern browsers support PNG favicons directly, making ICO format largely unnecessary for contemporary websites. However, favicon.ico placed in the site root provides a reliable fallback for older browsers and tools that automatically request /favicon.ico. Best practice: provide favicon.ico as a fallback (containing 16×16 and 32×32 images), plus separate PNG files at larger sizes for modern devices. The PNG format supports transparency, which is important for favicons displayed on colored browser chrome.
