PNG to ICO
Convert many images at once, no sign-up
If you close this tab, your files stay in this browser for 24 hours
v1.0 Updated 27 Oct 2026 What's new
PNG keeps sharp edges and transparency, which makes it the usual starting point for icons and web graphics. The picture is centred on a transparent square, so nothing is cut off.

Common questions
Short answers about what the converter keeps and what stays private.
Are my images uploaded anywhere?
No. The converter runs inside your browser, so your PNG files are read and the ICO files are made on your own device. Nothing is sent to a server.
Is there a limit?
No daily limit and no file size limit set by us. You can drop many files at once and download them one by one or together as a ZIP. Very large pictures depend on how much memory your device has. If one is too big, it is saved smaller and the list says so.
Are the photo details kept?
Not unless you ask. Details such as the place, the date and the camera are left out, so you can share the new file without them. To keep them, pick Keep under Photo details in Extra settings (JPG, PNG, WEBP, AVIF or JPEG XL), or Keep and edit to change the author, copyright, date or place.
Can I put my images into one PDF?
Yes, with Images to PDF: drop the pictures, drag them into order, and each one becomes a page of one PDF.
Which sizes are inside the ICO?
The ones you tick under Icon: 16, 32, 48 and 256 px at first, as Windows and browsers expect, and 64 and 128 px when you add them. A picture smaller than a size is not blown up to it. A picture that is not square is centred on a transparent square. Pick 8-bit for the smallest file.
Can I make a whole favicon set?
Yes. Turn on Favicon pack under Icon: you get one ZIP with favicon.ico, apple-touch-icon.png, 192 and 512 px PNG icons, a web manifest and the three HTML lines to paste into your site.
What is "Created with FormatYard.com" in my files?
Like the photo apps that write their own name, FormatYard writes this short note in each file it makes: in the Software field of a JPG, PNG, WEBP, AVIF, JPEG XL or TIFF, as a comment in a GIF or SVG, and as the maker of a PDF. It holds nothing about you. To take it out, along with every other photo detail, use the EXIF remover.
