Compress favicons

A favicon is the tiny icon in the browser tab, and it should be a few KB at most. Skwish compresses your PNG or WebP favicon locally in the browser — no uploads, no accounts, no visible quality loss on the small sizes browsers actually render.

Favicon compression tips

Use these before you upload or share the page.

Browsers render favicons at 16px and 32px — a 512px source compresses far smaller than you expect once resized.

Use PNG for favicons with transparency and WebP for photo-like icons; both compress well at tiny sizes.

Keep the favicon under 5KB when possible — it is fetched on every page load and cached, so smaller is faster.
