Convert your AVIF images to the ICO (Icon) format, perfect for favicons and desktop application icons.
Click to select AVIF files or drag & drop
(Max 10MB per file. ICO encoder loads on demand.)
Why Convert AVIF to ICO?
While AVIF is a modern image format, ICO is a specialized format primarily used for:
- Favicons: The small icons displayed in browser tabs, bookmarks, and search results. ICO is still widely supported and often preferred for this purpose.
- Desktop Icons: Icons for applications, folders, and files on Windows operating systems.
- Multi-Resolution Support: ICO files can contain multiple images at different resolutions (e.g., 16x16, 32x32, 48x48) within a single file, allowing the operating system or browser to choose the most appropriate size for display.
- Legacy Compatibility: For older systems or specific software that require the ICO format for icons.
Key Features of This Converter
Versatile ICO Creation
- • **Batch Processing:** Convert multiple AVIF files to ICO simultaneously.
- • **Multiple Sizes:** Select which standard ICO sizes (e.g., 16x16, 32x32, 48x48, 256x256) to include in the output ICO file.
- • **Transparency Handling:** AVIF transparency is preserved in ICO frames that support it (e.g., PNG-encoded frames within the ICO). For frames that don't, transparent areas are filled with a customizable background color.
User-Friendly Options
- • **Filename Customization:** Add prefixes or suffixes to your output ICO filenames.
- • **Download Options:** Download files individually or as a ZIP archive.
- • **Client-Side Processing:** All processing is done directly in your browser; files are not uploaded.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will transparency from my AVIF file be kept?
Yes, for ICO frames that support it (typically 32-bit PNG-encoded frames within the ICO). For other frames (e.g., 24-bit BMP-encoded frames), transparent areas will be filled with the background color you select.
Will the ICO file be larger than the original AVIF?
Yes, almost certainly. AVIF is a highly compressed format, while ICO files often contain multiple uncompressed or lightly compressed image frames. The ICO file size will increase with the number of sizes included and the complexity of the image.
Can I convert animated AVIF files to ICO?
No. ICO is a static image format and does not support animation. If you upload an animated AVIF, only the first frame will be processed and converted into the static ICO file.
Why does the ICO encoder take time to load?
Browsers do not natively support ICO encoding. This tool uses a client-side library (likely a WebAssembly module) to perform the complex task of generating the ICO file format. This library is loaded on demand to keep the initial page load fast. The loading time depends on your internet speed and the size of the encoder module.
Are my images uploaded to a server?
No, all image conversions are performed directly in your web browser. Your files are not sent to any external server, ensuring your privacy and security.
