FULL FAVICON DISCOVERY AND DOWNLOAD

Website Favicon Downloader

Inspect a public website for HTML icons, Apple touch icons, Safari masks, manifest assets and root fallbacks, then compare real dimensions and download exactly the files you need.

Method and edge cases reviewed

WEBSITE ADDRESS

Find every public favicon

Enter a homepage or page URL. The finder checks HTML icon declarations, Apple touch icons, Safari mask icons, web app manifests, Microsoft tile metadata and common root filenames.

Public HTTP and HTTPS websites only. Private network addresses and non-standard ports are blocked.

HOW DISCOVERY WORKS

More than a /favicon.ico check

1. Parse page declarations

The page head is inspected for standard icons, Apple touch icons, Safari pinned-tab masks, Microsoft tile images and linked manifests.

2. Inspect actual files

Each public image is downloaded within strict limits. Format, byte size, pixel dimensions and ICO frame sizes come from the file itself, not just the HTML claim.

3. Check common fallbacks

The site root is checked for conventional filenames only when useful. Identical files are merged so the results do not repeat the same artwork.

Declared versus actual

A warning appears when a fixed HTML sizes value does not match the downloaded image dimensions.

Short-lived downloads

Fetched files remain in server memory for up to 15 minutes so previews and ZIP downloads work. They are not written to disk.

Safer server requests

Local, private, reserved and metadata-network addresses are blocked, including redirects to those destinations.

Original assets

Downloads preserve the discovered image bytes and format. The tool does not upscale, recolor or recreate a site logo.

Website favicon downloader questions

Why does one website have several favicons?

Browsers, pinned tabs, mobile home screens and installable web apps use different formats and sizes. A mature site may provide a small ICO or PNG, a scalable SVG, a 180 × 180 Apple touch icon and 192 × 192 or 512 × 512 manifest icons.

Does this download the exact files used by the website?

Yes. The download uses the bytes returned by each discovered public URL. Duplicate bytes are grouped into one result even if several declarations point to the same file.

Why might a declared size differ from the actual size?

Site templates and icon files can be updated separately. The tool reads both the HTML declaration and the image header, then flags fixed-size declarations that do not match.

Why could a website return no favicon?

The site may block automated requests, require a login, load icons only after client-side rendering, return an unsupported image, or simply have no usable public icon declaration or common fallback.

Can I reuse a downloaded company logo?

Downloading a public favicon does not grant trademark or copyright rights. Use another organization’s artwork only when you have permission or a lawful purpose.
