Frequently Asked Questions

What is a favicon?

A favicon (short for favorite icon) is a small icon associated with a particular website or web page, typically displayed in the browser's address bar, tabs, and bookmarks.

Why should I use .ico format?

The .ico format is a legacy format that supports multiple resolutions in a single file. While modern browsers support PNG and SVG, .ico remains the most compatible choice for all environments.

Is my data safe?

Absolutely. This tool runs entirely in your browser. We do not upload your icons or any configuration to our servers.

Can I use these icons for commercial projects?

The icons provided are from open-source libraries (Ionicons, Font Awesome, etc.). Most allow commercial use, but you should check the specific license of the icon library you choose.

Do I need to credit this tool?

No credit is required, but we'd love it if you shared our tool with other developers!
