Favicon for Framer
How to add a favicon in Framer
To add a favicon in Framer, open Site Settings (the gear or your project name), go to the General tab, find the Favicon field, and upload a square image - 512x512px works best. Click Publish to push it live across your site.
What you need
- A square image, ideally 512x512px (PNG with transparent or solid background).
- Framer generates the tab icon and link tags for you.
- Publishing is required for the change to go live.
Step-by-step: add a favicon in Framer
- Open Site Settings. In the Framer editor, open Site Settings (click the project name or the settings gear), then go to the General tab.
- Upload the favicon. Find the Favicon section and upload a square image. Use 512x512px for the sharpest result.
- Publish. Click Publish. Framer regenerates the live site with your favicon in the browser tab.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Uploading a rectangular logo that gets cropped or squished into the square tab icon.
- Skipping Publish - changes in the editor are not live until you publish.
- Using a complex logo that is illegible at 16x16; simplify to a symbol.
- Not hard-refreshing after publishing, so the cached old icon appears.

Open the generatorFrequently asked questions
- Where is the favicon setting in Framer?
- In Site Settings, on the General tab, in the Favicon section. Upload a square image and then publish your site for it to appear.
- What favicon size is best for Framer?
- A square image at 512x512px. Framer downscales it for the browser tab, so a larger, simple, high-contrast mark stays sharp at small sizes.
- Do I need to publish after adding a favicon in Framer?
- Yes. Uploading in the editor does not push the favicon live. Click Publish so Framer regenerates the site with the new icon.
- Why is my Framer favicon not updating?
- Confirm you published the site, then hard-refresh or open a private window. Browser favicon caching commonly keeps the old icon visible for a while.
