About this icon

Use the Plus Circle icon

This outline icon from Heroicons works well across general-purpose product UIs, design systems, component libraries, web applications, and marketing sites. The outline visual style is specifically suited for app navigation bars, toolbar buttons, form labels, and UI controls where clarity at 16–24px is critical.

Customize it in IconStash: pick a color preset or enter any hex code, set exact dimensions, adjust stroke weight, then copy SVG code or download a PNG — no account needed.

Export formats

Copy clean SVG vectors with one click, generate custom-size PNG files from 16px to 512px, export JSX/React components ready to paste into your project, or use the icon as a CSS background-mask for flexible theming.

All exports are based on the same editable vector — so the Plus Circle icon stays pixel-perfect at 16px, 24px, 48px, and any large marketing size.

Design & UX integration

Aesthetic characteristics

Heroicons is made by the Tailwind CSS team, and Plus Circle shows it: geometry tuned to sit on Tailwind's spacing scale and to stay legible at 16px, 20px and 24px. Every icon ships in both outline and solid, so you can change style without changing size or re-aligning anything.

UX best practices

As a general interface glyph, the Plus Circle icon does its job best between 16px and 24px, sitting next to a text label. Icon-only treatments work for a small set of universally understood actions, but comprehension falls off quickly once the action is specific to your product — so when in doubt, add the word.

Use in your project

React / npm — Heroicons

npm install @heroicons/react

import { PlusCircleIcon } from '@heroicons/react/24/outline';

// JSX usage:
<PlusCircleIcon className="h-6 w-6 text-gray-700" />

Copy the SVG markup directly from the IconStash editor to use the Plus Circle icon without any npm package — paste it into HTML, JSX, or a design tool.
