Frequently Asked Questions

The ICO format is a container that stores multiple image sizes in a single file. Browsers load the most appropriate size depending on context: 16×16 for browser tabs, 32×32 for taskbar pinning, 48×48 for desktop shortcuts, and 128×128+ for high-DPI displays. A proper favicon.ico bundles all these sizes so browsers can choose the best fit automatically.

For broad compatibility, include at minimum: 16×16 (browser tab), 32×32 (Windows taskbar / Safari tab), and 48×48 (Windows site icon). For better HiDPI support add 64×64 and 128×128. Some modern setups also use 256×256 for ultra-HiDPI displays. Including all sizes is safe — browsers simply pick the most appropriate one.

Yes — modern browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Edge 80+) support SVG favicons via <link rel="icon" type="image/svg+xml" href="/favicon.svg">. SVG favicons are resolution-independent and support dark/light mode adaptation using prefers-color-scheme inside the SVG. However, ICO files remain the safest fallback for older browsers, iOS Safari, and Windows shortcuts — so providing both is the recommended approach.
