Why this tool exists

A focused workflow, without the design-app overhead

A favicon has to remain recognizable at 16 pixels, not just look good in a large preview. Design a compact letter mark, inspect it at browser-tab sizes, and export SVG or ICO-ready artwork.

Useful for

  • Shipping a temporary favicon before brand work is complete
  • Creating recognizable docs and internal-tool tabs
  • Testing a monogram across light and dark browser chrome

How to use it

From input to finished asset

  1. 01

    Choose the mark

    Enter one character and select a rounded square, circle, or squircle container.

  2. 02

    Check small sizes

    Tune the colors and weight while inspecting 16, 32, and 64 pixel previews.

  3. 03

    Install the favicon

    Download the SVG and add it with a link rel=icon element, or convert it to ICO for legacy support.

Designed for tiny canvases

The letter is centered optically with generous padding so it survives downscaling better than a detailed logo.

Modern browser support

Current browsers support SVG favicons. Keep an ICO fallback when older or embedded browsers matter.

Keep it recognizable

Use a simple initial and strong foreground/background contrast. Fine detail disappears in a browser tab.

Install with one line

Place the file in your public assets and reference it with a standard link rel=icon tag in the document head.

Common questions

Do browsers support SVG favicons?+

Modern browsers support SVG favicons. For older browsers, convert the SVG to ICO with the SVG to ICO converter.

Do I need to upload my file to use Favicon Generator?+

No. This tool runs in your browser, so your SVG stays in the current tab and is not uploaded to GenSVG.

Can I use the exported SVG in a commercial project?+

The tool does not add a watermark or a new license. Your right to use the result depends on the license and ownership of the source artwork you provide.
