About this icon

Use the User icon

This outline icon from Heroicons works well across social networks, community forums, profile pages, team collaboration tools, and user management dashboards. 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 User 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 User 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

People and profile icons like User are usually standing in for a specific user. Give it an accessible name with that person's name or handle, provide a text fallback when it is used as an avatar placeholder, and do not rely on the glyph alone to communicate role, relationship or presence.

Use in your project

React / npm — Heroicons

npm install @heroicons/react

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

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

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