About MakeFav

MakeFav is a free online favicon generator that turns any image into a complete, ready-to-use set of website icons in seconds. Upload a PNG, JPG, WebP, AVIF, GIF, BMP, SVG or ICO file and get everything a modern website needs: favicon.ico, PNG favicons, Apple touch icons, Android and PWA icons, Windows tiles, a manifest.json file and the HTML code to paste into your page – all in a single ZIP download.

Why we built MakeFav

For many years, web developers relied on the classic favicon-generator.org. When it was shut down, a lot of people were left without a simple, trustworthy tool they had used for years. We built MakeFav as its modern successor: just as easy to use, but updated for today’s browsers, devices and Progressive Web Apps.

What you can do with MakeFav

• Favicon generator – create all favicon sizes and formats from a single image, preview them and download them as a ZIP.
• Pixel editor – draw a favicon from scratch or fine-tune your icon pixel by pixel, right in the browser.
• Favicon checker – enter any public website address and see which icons it declares and what may be missing.
• REST API – automate favicon generation in your own apps and build pipelines with a personal API key.
• Blog – practical guides about favicons, app icons and web manifests.

Privacy first

Your images are yours. We never publish uploaded images or generated favicons – there is no public gallery and no hot-linking of your files from our servers. Packages are stored on servers in the European Union only so that you can download them, and they are deleted automatically after a limited time. We do not show ads and we do not use analytics trackers. Read more in our Privacy Policy.

Free, with no watermarks

MakeFav is free to use. The favicons you create belong to you and you can use them for any project, including commercial ones, with no watermark and no attribution required. To download your files, you just need a free account; in return, we ask you to subscribe to our newsletter, sent at most once a week. The details are explained in our Terms and Conditions.

Available in 52 languages

Websites are built all over the world, so MakeFav speaks your language. The whole interface is available in 52 languages.

Who is behind MakeFav

MakeFav is developed and operated by Webmint s.r.o., a small web company based in Prague, Czech Republic. We build tools that we use ourselves every day, and we care about making them fast, simple and respectful of your privacy.
