What happens to quality

ICO stores its images losslessly and transparency is preserved. Standard icon sizes are 16, 32, 48 and 256 pixels square.

When not to use this

Start from a square source. A non-square PNG must be padded or cropped, and detail in a 16px icon is essentially nonexistent — design the small sizes deliberately rather than downscaling a detailed logo.

Privacy Notice: All PNG to ICO conversions are performed locally in your web browser using WebAssembly technology. Your files are never uploaded to our servers, ensuring complete privacy and security. This also means faster conversion speeds and no file size limits from server restrictions.
