FAQ

What's the difference between simple and advanced mode?

Simple mode lets you quickly create favicons from uploads, emojis, or text with basic color options. Advanced mode (text only) unlocks Google Fonts, custom shapes, gradients, and text shadows for professional designs.

How does text fitting work?

The generator automatically scales your text to fit perfectly within the favicon, whether you enter a single letter or multiple words. Longer text is automatically reduced to ensure readability.

What sizes are generated?

The tool generates favicon-16x16.png, favicon-32x32.png, android-chrome-192x192.png, android-chrome-512x512.png, apple-touch-icon.png (180x180), favicon.ico, and site.webmanifest.

Can I use custom fonts?

Yes! In advanced mode (text favicons only), you can choose from 10 popular Google Fonts including Inter, Playfair Display, Roboto, Montserrat, and more.

How do I choose the right colors for my favicon?

Use our Color Palette Generator to create harmonious color schemes, or extract colors from your logo to match your brand. Then paste the hex codes into the background or gradient fields.
