Free Favicon Checker: Test Size, Format & Cross-Browser Compatibility
First, run this tool to discover your favicon files automatically. Next, verify format, dimensions, and delivery over HTTPS. Finally, fix missing icons to improve user experience and brand recognition.
The tool finds icons from <link rel="icon">, Apple touch icons,
manifests, and the default /favicon.ico.
It checks file format, content-type, file size, and dimensions when possible. As a result, you can fix blurry or missing icons quickly.
Different browsers prefer different files. However, a simple setup covers them all. Therefore, we show recommended sizes and what you might be missing.
How the Favicon Checker Works
First, we fetch your page HTML. Next, we detect favicon link tags and manifest files. After that, we test each icon URL and read basic properties. Finally, we show a clear report.

Validate each icon
Checks status, content-type, file size, and dimensions (when available).

Why Your Favicon Matters
Favicons are small, but they have a big impact. They help users identify your site in tabs, bookmarks, and history. In addition, a clear icon improves trust and makes your brand look more professional.
- Only one icon size (looks blurry on high-DPI screens)
- Missing apple-touch-icon (iOS shows a generic icon)
- Missing /favicon.ico (legacy compatibility problems)
- Icons served over HTTP on an HTTPS site (mixed content blocking)
- Manifest icons missing for PWA or Android shortcuts
