Drop SVG files onto the box above, or click it to choose them. ToAny reads the file's contents to detect the type, so a wrong extension does not matter.
Press Convert. Open Options first if you want to change the defaults. The work happens in this tab.
Save the ICO, or download everything as one ZIP if you converted several files.
The SVG to ICO converter is part of this page and runs inside your browser. Your graphics are never sent to ToAny or to anyone else.
Nothing has to travel to a server and back, so the conversion starts the moment you press Convert, even on a slow connection.
No sign-up, no email address and no watermark. Add several files and download them together as a ZIP.
SVG is refused by most social networks, marketplaces and document editors. ICO holds several sizes in one file, which is what favicons and Windows shortcuts need. SVG is at home in logos, icons and illustrations that must scale; ICO is the usual choice for website favicons and Windows app icons.
ICO holds a single still image, so an animated SVG does not stay animated. The defaults suit most files. Under Options you can pick which icon sizes go into the file and set the scale the vector is rendered at.
The SVG is drawn at its own width and height (taken from its viewBox if it has no size) times the scale set under Options, scaled down if that would pass 16,384 pixels a side or 64 megapixels. Scripts inside the SVG never run and files it links to are not fetched, so text in a font the SVG does not embed is drawn in a fallback font.
SVG describes an image as shapes and text rather than pixels, so it stays sharp at any size. It is ideal for logos and icons. Social networks, marketplaces and most office software will not accept it, which is when a PNG or JPG copy is needed.

SVG converterAn ICO file bundles the same icon at several sizes, such as 16, 32 and 48 pixels, so Windows or a browser can pick the sharpest one. It is still the most compatible way to ship a favicon.

No. The SVG to ICO conversion runs inside your browser, on your own phone or computer. The file is not sent to ToAny or to anyone else.
The picture is scaled down: an icon file holds small square copies of it (16, 32, 48 and 256 pixels by default), so anything larger loses detail and a picture that is not square gets empty space around it. Each size is stored without further loss. You can pick the sizes under Options. The SVG itself is drawn as pixels first, so the result no longer scales without blur; set the scale under Options if you need it larger.
Yes. Add as many as you like, convert them together and download each result or all of them as one ZIP.
The steps are the same everywhere because ToAny runs in the web browser: open this page in a current version of Chrome, Edge, Safari or Firefox, add the SVG file, press Convert and save the ICO. There is nothing to install.
An SVG is a small text file, so its size is not the limit: it is drawn at its own dimensions times the scale you set, and scaled down to stay within 16,384 pixels a side and 64 megapixels. Beyond that the limit is your device's memory, since nothing is uploaded; a computer copes with large files better than a phone.
