Modern browsers handle PNG favicons just fine, including on Windows. .ico is only required for legacy IE; if you really need one, use a separate converter on the 32px PNG output here.

Does my image get uploaded?

No. The Canvas API runs in your browser and processes the file locally. We never see your source image.

What is it?

A favicon generator takes a single source image and produces multiple PNG copies at the sizes browsers and mobile platforms expect: 16 and 32 for tabs, 180 for iOS home-screen, 192 and 512 for Android / PWA manifests, plus intermediate sizes for high-density displays. The output is a set of PNG files you can drop into your site's `public/` and reference from your HTML head.

When to use it

Replacing the default favicon when shipping a new site, refreshing a brand identity, generating PWA manifest icons, or producing per-product app icons.

Common mistakes

Using a non-square source image - the result is letterboxed with awkward bands. Filling fine detail at 16px - the image is 16 pixels wide, treat it as a glyph not a logo. And forgetting the iOS 180px / Android 192/512px variants - the favicon you ship to a desktop browser is not what a phone's home screen wants.
