About PNG to ICO

A favicon or application icon has to look sharp at 16×16 pixels in a browser tab and crisp at 256×256 on a high-DPI desktop. PNG alone cannot do that — it is a single-resolution image with no concept of icon sizes. ICO is the container format that packs multiple bitmap sizes into one file, letting the operating system or browser pick the best size automatically.

This tool converts PNG files to ICO directly in your browser. PNG is a particularly good source for icons because it supports transparency, which lets the icon blend into any background. Your images never leave your device — the conversion runs locally using the Canvas API. No upload queue, no server processing, no privacy risk.

The tool generates common icon sizes (16×16 to 256×256) based on your source image. Sizes larger than the source are skipped to avoid blurry upscaling. The result is a single ICO file ready to use as a website favicon or Windows application icon — no plugin needed, no watermark, no limit.
