Choose one standard icon dimension, and the worker will resize the uploaded image into that square while preserving its aspect ratio. The output ICO contains the selected PNG-encoded subimage; it is not a multi-size icon bundle.
The converter is useful for quickly preparing a favicon-sized ICO from PNG, WebP, AVIF, JPG, GIF, or BMP inputs supported by the browser. Transparency can be preserved from alpha-capable inputs, but JPG sources remain opaque and the tool does not generate app icon manifests or server-side assets.
Common questions and answers about this topic.
No. All conversion runs entirely in your browser inside a Web Worker. Your images never leave your device.
For website favicons, 32×32 px is the standard browser-tab size, while 48×48 or 64×64 also covers bookmarks and shortcuts. This tool exports one selected size per ICO file; if you need a Windows desktop icon with multiple embedded sizes, generate the required sizes separately or use a dedicated icon packaging tool.
Yes. ICO files generated by this tool use 32-bit PNG-encoded subimages, fully preserving the alpha channel from PNG, WebP, or AVIF inputs. JPG inputs (which lack transparency) will produce an opaque icon — consider trimming the background first if you need transparency.
