About this icon

Use the Person Play icon

Icons in the fill style — like Person Play — are designed for interface components and product UI. Use it across media players, streaming interfaces, audio controls, photo galleries, podcast apps, and video platforms for a consistent, professional look.

IconStash's editor lets you fine-tune color, size, and stroke width in real time, then export in the format that fits your workflow: SVG, PNG, JSX, or CSS background-mask.

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

Design & UX integration

Aesthetic characteristics

Person Play belongs to Google's Material Symbols, which replaces static icon files with a variable font. Weight, Fill, Grade and Optical Size are all adjustable axes, so one file covers what used to need five. Optical Size is the most useful: the glyph is subtly redrawn for small sizes rather than just scaled down.

UX best practices

For media and audio-visual interfaces, place the Person Play 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.
