What file formats do you support?

We support over 100 file formats including images (JPG, PNG, GIF, WebP, TIFF), documents (PDF, DOC, DOCX, TXT), videos (MP4, AVI, MOV), audio (MP3, WAV, FLAC), and many more specialized formats.

Yes, absolutely. We use enterprise-grade encryption for all file transfers. Your files are automatically deleted from our servers after conversion, and we never store or access your personal data.

What is the maximum file size?

The maximum file size for free users is 100MB per file. Premium users can convert files up to 1GB. For larger files, we recommend our batch processing feature.

How long does conversion take?

Most files convert in under 30 seconds. The exact time depends on file size and format complexity. Our advanced algorithms ensure the fastest possible conversion while maintaining quality.

Can I convert multiple files at once?

Yes! Our batch processing feature allows you to upload and convert up to 50 files simultaneously. This is perfect for bulk conversions and saves significant time.

Do I need to create an account?

No account is required for basic conversions. However, creating a free account gives you access to batch processing, file history, and priority support.

Tips and Best Practices

Optimize your conversion workflow with technical recommendations.

Prepare Source for Icons

Crop JPG to a square aspect ratio to avoid unwanted padding in ICO entries
Provide a high-resolution JPG (512+ px) so downsampling produces crisp small icons
If transparency is required, supply a separate alpha mask image to combine during conversion
Remove heavy JPEG compression artifacts in an editor before conversion to reduce haloing at small sizes
Align subject centrally in the JPG so important details remain visible when scaled to 16–32 px

Output Size & Encoding

Choose only needed ICO sizes to minimize final file size and resource footprint
Prefer PNG-encoded ICO entries for better compression and alpha support over BMP-style entries
Use 32-bit RGBA entries when you require translucency in Windows taskbars or desktop icons
Avoid including redundant 256 px entries if target platform downscales from a single large size
Verify resulting ICO file size before embedding in installers to meet distribution limits

Platform & Workflow Integration

Test generated ICOs in Windows Explorer and your target installer to confirm correct icon selection
Import ICO into Visual Studio resource editor; ensure resource IDs match application manifests
For cross-platform assets, also export PNG variants at matching sizes for macOS and web usage
Use automated scripts to batch-convert JPG folders into icon packs for consistent project assets
Maintain original JPGs with metadata in your asset repository for future reexports

Verification & Performance

Preview small-size entries at 16–32 px to check legibility and contrast after conversion
Process batches of 20–50 JPGs to balance throughput and browser memory constraints
Close memory-hungry applications during large conversions to avoid slowdowns or crashes
Confirm color fidelity on sRGB displays; embedded ICC profiles may be normalized during export
Download ZIP packages promptly and clear temporary buffers to maintain client-side privacy

Fast Processing

Close unused tabs for maximum throughput.

Client-Side Privacy

No media leaves your device.

Broad Compatibility

Output files work across all operating systems.

Pro Tip

For batch conversions, process in groups of 20-50 files to optimize memory usage and avoid browser slowdowns.
