About this icon

Use the Compass icon

The Compass icon from Ionicons fits naturally in app menus, breadcrumbs, map interfaces, multi-step forms, pagination controls, and sidebar navigation. Its fill style makes it ideal for interface components and product UI.

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

Design & UX integration

Aesthetic characteristics

Ionicons ships Compass in Outline, Filled and Sharp variants. Sharp drops the rounded corners for a more angular look, which makes the set unusually flexible — the same icon can read as approachable or as technical depending on which variant you pick.

UX best practices

For headers, sidebars, footers and breadcrumbs, pair the Compass icon with a text label wherever space allows. Icon-only navigation tests well only for a handful of universally understood actions; comprehension drops sharply once the destination is product-specific. Keep the icon at a fixed optical size so the menu does not appear to shift.

Use in your project

React / npm — Ionicons

npm install @ionic/react ionicons

import { IonIcon } from '@ionic/react';
import { compass } from 'ionicons/icons';

// JSX usage:
<IonIcon icon={compass} style={{ fontSize: '24px' }} />

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