Extract and download favicons from any website instantly. Free online tool to grab high-resolution website icons with preview and direct download.
Supports full URLs or just domain names. The tool will automatically parse the root domain and fetch its favicon.
Please enter a URL and click 'Get Favicon' to see the icon.
Overview
Understand what the tool solves, how it works, and the boundaries of its data.
Enter a website address or domain and submit it to see a favicon preview and a parsed hostname. The tool requests an icon through a remote favicon service and presents size choices labeled 16, 32, 64, 128, and 256 pixels. Those labels describe the requested preview/download sizes; they do not guarantee that the original site provides a native file at each dimension.
The results also show the conventional /favicon.ico address for the parsed host. This is a useful direct path to inspect, but it is separate from the remote-service preview. Modern sites may declare icons in their page markup in other locations or formats; this tool does not read a site’s HTML to enumerate every declared icon. The HTML standard recognizes rel="icon" links as page icons and allows multiple declarations.
Each size card displays the service response for the selected requested size and offers a download action. Successful downloads are saved as PNG files with a size-specific name; if retrieval fails, the image is opened in a new tab so it can be saved manually. A resized or service-provided image may differ from the site’s original favicon file in format, dimensions, or freshness.
rel attribute: documents rel="icon" as a page icon link and notes that multiple declarations may be selected using attributes such as media, type, and sizes; checked 2026-09-29.Guide
Follow the workflow and verify inputs and outputs with practical examples.
Enter a domain such as example.com or a full HTTP/HTTPS URL. The page extracts the hostname; a path on the entered URL does not select a different favicon for that path.
Choose Get Favicon. Check the parsed domain and the displayed preview before using an icon. If the URL is rejected, remove extra text and confirm the host is valid.
Inspect the available size cards and use Download on the size you want. If the direct download cannot complete, the image opens separately and can be saved from the browser.
Use the shown default favicon.ico address when you specifically want to inspect that common root path. The address may not exist even when a site uses a different declared icon.
Use cases
See how the tool fits into real work and everyday tasks.
A designer can preview an organization’s recognizable site icon while building a draft directory entry, then confirm usage rights and brand assets with the owner.
A developer can compare the parsed hostname with the domain intended for a bookmark, dashboard, or internal mockup before downloading a preview image.
A site maintainer can inspect the displayed favicon.ico URL as a quick check, then review the page’s own icon declarations if the file is missing or not the icon users expect.
Q&A
Find concise answers to common questions and confusing cases.
No. It displays a remote favicon-service result and a common favicon.ico path; it does not crawl the page’s icon links or enumerate all declared assets.
Not necessarily. The labels are requested preview and download sizes, not a report of the source icon’s native dimensions.
The remote service may not have a matching icon for that host, or its result may differ from the site’s currently declared asset. Check the website’s own icon links and the shown favicon.ico path directly.
Notes
Review scope, result limitations, and important precautions before use.
A favicon may be a trademark or other protected brand asset. A preview or download does not grant permission to reuse it. Confirm the site owner’s terms and use authorized brand files for public or commercial materials. The submitted hostname is used to request an icon from a remote service. Results may be unavailable or differ from the source site’s current icon.
