How to Convert PNG to ICO (Create a Favicon for Your Website)
M
MegaConvert Team
Every website needs a favicon.ico. Converting a PNG logo to ICO format takes 3 seconds — no Photoshop or special tools needed. Upload to MegaConvert.io and select ICO — done in seconds, free.
The Problem
You designed your website's logo as a PNG. Now you need a favicon.ico file for the browser tab. ICO is a special format that contains multiple icon sizes in one file — you can't just rename a .png to .ico.
Why Convert?
- Browser tabs — favicon.ico is the classic format every browser recognizes.
- Multi-size — ICO contains 16x16, 32x32, and 48x48 in one file.
- Legacy support — older browsers require ICO format specifically.
How to Convert Online
- Go to megaconvert.io/png-to-ico.
- Drag and drop your .png file.
- Download your .ico.
No account. No watermarks. Files auto-delete after 1 hour.
