Frequently Asked Questions

What sizes should my favicon be?

At minimum, include 16x16, 32x32, and 180x180 (Apple touch icon). A 512x512 PNG for PWA is also recommended.

Why isn't my favicon showing up?

Common causes include incorrect file paths, missing meta tags, or browser caching. Our checker identifies the specific issue.

Does favicon affect SEO?

Favicons appear in search results next to your URL, improving brand recognition and potentially click-through rates.

What favicon formats should I use?

Use ICO format for maximum legacy browser compatibility, PNG for modern browsers, and SVG if you want a scalable icon that looks crisp at any size. For progressive web apps, include 192x192 and 512x512 PNG icons in your web app manifest.

How do I add an Apple Touch Icon?

Add a 180x180 pixel PNG image and reference it with <link rel="apple-touch-icon" href="/apple-touch-icon.png"> in your HTML head. This icon is used when iOS users add your site to their home screen, and omitting it means Apple will generate a low-quality screenshot instead.
