Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is this Favicon Generator & Extractor free to use?
A: Absolutely! Our favicon tools are 100% free with no hidden costs, subscriptions, or limits on usage.
Q: Which image formats are supported for favicon generation?
A: You can upload images in JPG, PNG, WebP, GIF, BMP, and TIFF formats. The tool will convert them into PNG favicons of various sizes.
Q: Is my image data sent to your servers for processing?
A: No, all image and favicon processing occurs directly within your web browser. Your files are never uploaded to our servers, ensuring your privacy and security.
Q: Do I need to install any software or plugins?
A: Not at all! This is a completely online, web-based tool. You can access and use it from any modern browser without needing to download or install anything.
Q: What favicon sizes are generated?
A: When generating from an image, the tool creates common favicon sizes including 16×16, 24×24, 32×32, 48×48, 64×64, 128×128, and 256×256 pixels in PNG format.
Q: How does the favicon extractor work for website URLs?
A: The extractor attempts to fetch the favicon using common methods, including Google’s favicon service for general domains. Due to browser security (CORS), directly reading a website’s HTML for its specific favicon link from another domain is not possible client-side. The tool will provide the most likely favicon for the given URL. For the most accurate result, especially for sites with custom favicon paths, sometimes manual inspection of the website’s source code might be required to find a direct `.ico` or `.png` link.
Q: Can I generate an .ICO file directly?
A: Generating `.ico` files directly within the browser using only JavaScript is complex due to the specific multi-image format of `.ico`. Our generator produces high-quality `.png` favicons in various sizes, which are widely supported by all modern browsers. For older browsers requiring `.ico`, you can use an external online PNG to ICO converter after generating your PNGs here.
