Favicon Generator

Use this favicon generator to create a quick text, letter, or emoji icon for a project, internal tool, prototype, or placeholder website. Choose colors, preview the icon, and download a PNG.

How to use Favicon Generator

  1. Enter short text, initials, or an emoji.
  2. Choose foreground and background colors.
  3. Preview and download the generated favicon PNG.

Example workflow

Enter UB, choose a teal background, and download a clean placeholder favicon for a small project.

Privacy and limits

The favicon preview and download are generated locally in the browser.

Short text works better than long words because favicons appear very small in browser tabs.

Common uses

  • Make a placeholder favicon for a side project.
  • Create letter icons for internal tools.
  • Test brand colors before designing a final icon.
  • Copy a simple HTML snippet for favicon links.
