Create Professional Favicons from Text

A favicon is the small icon that appears in browser tabs, bookmarks, and app shortcuts. Text-based favicons using initials or letters are clean, professional, and work well at small sizes where complex logos become unreadable.

Why Text-Based Favicons?

  • Clarity: Letters remain readable at 16×16 pixels.
  • Brand Recognition: Initials reinforce brand identity.
  • Quick Creation: No graphic design skills needed.
  • Consistency: Easy to match brand colors exactly.

Size Guide

  • 16×16: Browser tabs (standard)
  • 32×32: Taskbar, Safari pinned tabs
  • 180×180: Apple Touch Icon (iOS home screen)
  • 192×192: Android Chrome home screen
  • 512×512: PWA splash screens

Color Tips

  • Use high contrast between text and background.
  • Match your brand's primary colors.
  • Test on both light and dark browser themes.
  • Avoid very light colors that blend into tabs.
