What is a favicon and why does it matter?
A favicon is the small icon shown in browser tabs, bookmarks, history, and when users save your site to their phone home screen. A missing or low-resolution favicon makes your brand look unfinished — even when the rest of the site is polished.
Which favicon files do you need?
At minimum: favicon.ico (legacy browsers) and a 32×32 PNG for modern tabs. Add apple-touch-icon (180×180) for iOS, plus 192×192 and 512×512 icons in your web manifest for Android and PWAs. A single 16×16 file alone is rarely enough today.
How does the favicon check work?
Enter any URL and we fetch the HTML, parse link rel icons, check /favicon.ico, and read web app manifest entries. You get a list of every icon found with dimensions, format, and a direct download link.
Common favicon mistakes
Wrong aspect ratio (non-square images get squashed), tiny source files upscaled until they look blurry, broken paths after a deploy, or icons only defined in JavaScript instead of server-rendered HTML. Always use absolute URLs or root-relative paths.
Favicon vs. Open Graph image
Favicons are tiny brand marks for browsers and OS shells. Open Graph images are large link previews for social sharing. You need both — they serve different jobs. Use our main scan tool to validate og:image alongside your favicon setup.
Also check social link previews for the same site with our Open Graph scanner.
Favicon FAQ
Enter a URL above to inspect live favicon files, or read the sections below for sizing and implementation tips.
Browser tabs typically use 16×16 and 32×32 pixels. favicon.ico often bundles multiple sizes in one file. For crisp retina tabs, provide at least a 32×32 PNG or SVG in addition to the legacy .ico.
