About this icon

Use the Pause icon

The Pause icon from Lucide fits naturally in media players, streaming interfaces, audio controls, photo galleries, podcast apps, and video platforms. Its outline style makes it ideal for app navigation bars, toolbar buttons, form labels, and UI controls where clarity at 16–24px is critical.

Open it in IconStash to set stroke color via presets or a custom hex value, choose an exact pixel size (16–512px), control stroke width (0.1–3px), and preview against dark, light, or checkered backgrounds before downloading.

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 Pause icon stays pixel-perfect at 16px, 24px, 48px, and any large marketing size.

Design & UX integration

Aesthetic characteristics

The Pause icon follows the Lucide design system: a 24x24 grid, 2px strokes, and rounded line caps and joins. Lucide started as a community fork of Feather Icons and keeps that restraint — each glyph is reduced to the fewest strokes that still read at 16px, with no fills and no decorative detail.

UX best practices

For media and audio-visual interfaces, place the Pause icon prominently so it reads as a control rather than a label — playback, volume and cast affordances are scanned before they are read. Keep at least 3:1 contrast against the video surface and give it an accessible name, since media controls are frequently the only way to operate a player.

Use in your project

React / npm — Lucide

npm install lucide-react

import { Pause } from 'lucide-react';

// JSX usage:
<Pause size={24} color="#000" />

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