What is RealFaviconGenerator?

RealFaviconGenerator turns one image into a full favicon set for browsers, iOS, Android and desktop shortcuts, along with the HTML code to add to your site. You can preview and adjust each platform's icon, and a free checker tests whether an existing site's favicons are set up correctly.

Pros: what RealFaviconGenerator does well

  • Covers every major platform
  • Preview before you export
  • Includes a favicon checker

Cons: where it falls short

  • Needs a good square source image
  • Many options for a first-time user
