A favicon is the small icon displayed in browser tabs, bookmarks, and search results. Missing or broken favicons look unprofessional and can affect brand recognition. This tool checks whether a domain has a favicon by testing common paths and Google's favicon service.

The preview uses Google's favicon CDN which caches icons for most public websites. Everything runs in your browser.

FAQ

Where does the favicon come from?

The preview uses Google's favicon service (google.com/s2/favicons) which caches favicons for most public websites.

My favicon doesn't show up. Why?

Google's service may not have cached your favicon yet. Make sure you have a /favicon.ico file or a <link rel='icon'> tag in your HTML.

Is my data safe when I use Favicon Checker?

Yes. All calculations run entirely in your browser. Your data is never sent to a server, stored in a database, or shared with anyone. You can use this tool with complete confidence that your information remains private.
