About FaviconDownload.dev
What is FaviconDownload.dev?
FaviconDownload.dev is a free Chrome extension that allows you to quickly download website favicons in multiple formats. Whether you're a web developer building a website directory, a designer collecting brand assets, or a marketer creating reports, our tool makes it easy to extract favicons with just one click.
The extension automatically detects all available favicon variants on any website, including ICO, PNG, SVG, and other formats. You can download them individually or in bulk, copy URLs to clipboard, and view detailed metadata about each icon.
Why We Built This
As web developers ourselves, we often needed to download favicons for various projects - building website directories, creating documentation, competitor analysis, and more. Existing solutions were either bloated with unnecessary features, required accounts and subscriptions, or didn't respect user privacy.
We wanted a simple, fast, and privacy-friendly tool that does one thing well: download favicons. No tracking, no data collection, no premium features - just a straightforward utility that works.
Our Principles
Privacy First
Everything happens locally in your browser. We don't collect, store, or transmit any of your data. The extension only accesses the current tab when you click it, and all processing happens on your device.
Free Forever
FaviconDownload.dev is completely free with no hidden costs, subscriptions, or premium features. We believe essential developer tools should be accessible to everyone.
Simple & Lightweight
Built with pure JavaScript and minimal dependencies. No bloat, no unnecessary features, just a clean and efficient tool that does its job well.
Secure by Design
We follow Chrome's security best practices and request only the minimal permissions required: activeTab, downloads, and scripting. No broad permissions, no background processes.
