Convert SVG to ICO — FAQ

What is ICO primarily for?
ICO is primarily for favicons and Windows-style application icons.
Why does icon export quality depend on size?
Favicons are tiny, so exporting at sensible icon dimensions (16, 32, 48, 64) improves clarity.
Can I use ICO for social media images?
No. ICO is a specialized icon format and not ideal for regular image sharing.
Do I still need PNG along with ICO?
Often yes. Many modern setups use both ICO and PNG for broader device coverage.
