Best Favicon Size in 2026
There is no single best favicon size — there's a best set. Different surfaces request different resolutions, and a complete favicon package covers every one of them with a single source image.
16×16 and 32×32 cover browser tabs and bookmarks on standard- and high-density displays. They go inside favicon.ico and as standalone PNGs.
48×48 is the Windows Explorer 'medium icon' size and a common search-result thumbnail size. Always bundle it.
180×180 is Apple's apple-touch-icon — required for a clean iOS home-screen install.
192×192 and 512×512 are the PWA manifest sizes Android, Chromium, and the install prompt use.

What's the single most important favicon size?+
32×32 — it's the size browsers request most often for tabs on standard displays. Include it both inside .ico and as a standalone PNG.
Do I really need a 512×512 icon?+
Yes, for the PWA install prompt and Android home screen. Without it, Android falls back to a generic browser icon.
Can I just upload one big image and let the tool resize?+
That's the recommended workflow. Start from 512×512 (or SVG) and let FetchFavicon export every size losslessly.
