FAQ
Questions about the favicon downloader
What is a favicon downloader?
A tool that finds and saves the small icons a website gives browsers: the favicon in the tab, the Apple touch icon and the web app icons. Paste a link and Sitepeel lists them all.
How do I get the favicon from a website?
Paste the site’s link and press Get favicon. Open an icon to see its size and where the page names it, then download it, or press ZIP for all of them.
Where is a website’s favicon stored?
At the address in the page’s icon link, and often at /favicon.ico in the site’s root folder. Apple touch icons have their own link, and web app icons are listed in the site’s manifest file.
How do I get a bigger favicon?
Look past the tab icon: Apple touch icons are usually 180 pixels, and web app icons 192 and 512 pixels. Press Largest to put the biggest first. When a site offers one icon in several sizes, you get the biggest, and its card says how many sizes it found.
Can I download a favicon as PNG or SVG?
You get each icon in the format the site serves it: ICO, PNG or SVG. If the site has an SVG favicon, that one scales to any size.
Why are some icons missing?
A manifest on another domain may block reading, and a site that sets its icon only with a script may not have done it when we read the page. Pages behind a login need the Chrome extension.
Is the favicon downloader free?
It works like the asset extractor: you get a few free runs to start, then sign in (free) to keep going, and lifetime access makes them unlimited.
Can I use a website’s favicon?
It is part of the site’s brand. Showing it next to a link to that site is common; using it as your own logo needs the owner’s permission. More tools for files: the asset extractor.
