Ionicons – Free and beautiful icons, MIT licensed
- Oculus 13y agoSome of these are very nice, will definitely use them in my next project, thanks!
- mfer 13y agoUnfortunately, it fails to display in Firefox for me on either a Mac or Linux. Works in Chrome though.
- yesimahuman 13y agoAh! Good catch, we will fix that right away.
- yesimahuman 13y agoFixed!
- arfar 13y agoSame for me. Ubuntu 12.04, Firefox 24
- pplante 13y agothese icons look great. really nice work. it seems the css for them suffers from the same glob css selectors which font-awesome switched away from in 4.x. im not entirely sure if this is really that big of an issue as people made it out to be. i wonder if ionicons will switch in the future? here is the font awesome issue: https://github.com/FortAwesome/Font-Awesome/issues/568 https://github.com/FortAwesome/Font-Awesome/issues/568
- yesimahuman 13y agoGood point, we should tweak that. Made a GH issue for it https://github.com/driftyco/ionicons/issues/7 https://github.com/driftyco/ionicons/issues/7
- castis 13y agoThe ones I can see are great! I know I'm most likely not your target market but I'd want to know. http://i.imgur.com/T661sDN.jpg http://i.imgur.com/T661sDN.jpg FF 24 - ubuntu 12.04
- minor_nitwit 13y agoFF 24 on 13.10 works.
- yesimahuman 13y agoSorry about that, fixing right now.
- puredemo 13y agoSame thing on FF 24 on windows.
- Samuel_Michon 13y agoI don’t want to come across as gloating, but just to add a data point: Chrome 30 on OS X 10.9 works fine. I’m toying around with the icons right now.
- JoelAnair 13y agoReally nice icons. Thanks for sharing.

- alexgaribay 13y agoThese are really beautiful! Awesome set of icons!

- yesimahuman 13y agoSo looks like we got hit with a perfect storm of Github going down for the archive download, and the icons not loading on Firefox. Working on fixing the second one, but the repo with all the icons is here: https://github.com/driftyco/ionicons https://github.com/driftyco/ionicons
- yesimahuman 13y agoOkay, the firefox issue was fixed and github is back. For those curious, looks like one of our new icons was not processed correctly by icomoon and ruined the whole font file. Lesson learned. So, if you got the v1.2 version, download the new 1.2.2 version instead :)
- slg 13y agoIt seems a little dangerous to include logos for various companies. I could see the likes of Reddit and Y Combinator turning a blind eye, but would we expect the same from Google, Microsoft, and Apple? I am no legal expert, but wouldn't those icons present a long term problem if this project were to truly become successful?
- Bahamut 13y agoFont Awesome is pretty popular and I haven't seen anything happening there with regards to this situation, so this is a non-issue IMO.
- slg 13y agoI am not sure if the "But Mom, all my friends were doing it" defense will hold up in court. In all seriousness, they are claiming copyright over an icon that is clearly meant to represent a brand's copyrighted and trademarked logo. Then they are rereleasing that logo under a MIT license. I have never gone to law school, but I can't imagine that Apple's lawyers will be thrilled by that.
- Bahamut 13y agoI understand, but it's not always so cut and dry. Seeing that a popular almost identical non-controversial product is doing the same thing without any legal action is a vote of confidence in my book. Having been part of a hobbyist organization who has had experience with dealing with large corporations who hold copyrights (in music), I am privy to information you might be surprised at what companies choose to let slide as unofficial policy.
- Silhouette 13y agoDifferent kinds of IP have different properties in different places. In particular, in some cases, the rights continue until they run out unless they are deliberately relinquished, while in other cases the rights must be defended or they can be weakened. Just because you've seen organisations let copyright infringement slide in the past, that doesn't necessarily mean they would let something like trademark use go unchallenged in the same way.
- tambourine_man 13y agoThey look great, but the page is crashing mobile Safari (4s iOS 7) after a bit of scrolling.
- iambateman 13y agoThis looks like a great complement to Font Awesome. Bless you for including a Cheatsheet in the download. These look great! As an aside, I wish there was a way to search these icons sets by idea. So "Money" returns icon-ios7-pricetag and icon-social-bitcoin. (obviously I can cmd+F to look for the exact name).
- yesimahuman 13y agoDid you try that exact search? It works just as you described :) We tried to make sure you could search by generic concepts rather than just the text in the class names.
- Samuel_Michon 13y agoI love it and I’ll be using it, thanks. Previous similar sets of icons I found didn’t include all of the icons I needed. The main ones I need are: email, home, share, arrows, checkmark, cross, help, love, and link. I’m thrilled that this collection doesn’t only include the old iOS ‘share’ button, but also the new iOS 7 style button. I also like that you not only included an icon webfont for all the symbols, but also SVG files for all of the icons. NB: Just an idea: on the website, it’d be nice if you‘d have hover tooltips for the icons that would show the description. (it took me a while to find out I had to click on the icon to see the description – to me, clicking means I will download the icon)
- Bahamut 13y agoI like these icons, but one suggestion - can you put a link to the GitHub repo at the top of the ionicon page? It should be much more accessible than at the bottom. Edit: Oh, and register this on Bower! Edit #2: And maybe LESS and SASS support please? :)
- yOutely 13y agoMonotone icons can never be beautiful.
- steven777400 13y agoAlthough "never" is probably too strong a word, I prefer colorful icons as well :)
- yesimahuman 13y agoYou can do some cool stuff with background colors and all of that. But I agree, we'd love to do multi-color icons :)
- rohitv 13y agoSimple CSS tricks allow you to change the color of icon fonts easily http://css-tricks.com/examples/IconFont/ http://css-tricks.com/examples/IconFont/
- electic 13y agoIt would be nice if people would contribute to Font Awesome instead of creating whole new sets.
- kenrikm 13y agoIcon fonts are awesome, thanks for taking the time to create these. For those interested I have a post/example project on my blog on how to use them in iOS6+. http://kenrikmarch.com/posts/4 http://kenrikmarch.com/posts/4

- adamdbradley 13y agoBen also wrote a great post describing how he built Ionicons: http://ionicframework.com/blog/building-ionicons/ http://ionicframework.com/blog/building-ionicons/
- chmars 13y agoI'm missing emoticons … ;)
- Rampoina 13y agoI just see kanji's and a some arabic characters. I checked and firefox is set to allow pages to use their fonts.
- yesimahuman 13y agoFixed, sorry about that!
- Rampoina 13y agoNow it works, thank you! Nice icons.
- rfrey 13y agoLovely, thanks. I have to feel like it's the end of an era when new icon sets don't include a floppy disk, though. :`/
- joshschreuder 13y agoIsn't it still a valid icon to indicate saving though? Is there another better representation of saving?
- city41 13y agoSaving being a distinct step is fading away.
- yesimahuman 13y agoThat should be in there. working on it, thanks.
- lotyrin 13y agoWhat is saving these days aside from "We've bizarrely held your changes since the last time you clicked this button shaped like an antiquity aside just in case you wanted to risk losing them all by navigating away."?
- jeorgun 13y agoWhat's git-commit aside from "We've bizarrely held your changes since the last time you ran this command via an antiquated interface just in case you wanted to risk losing them all by accidentally running rm in the wrong directory?" Being able to screw around with things without fear of recovering not being able to recover your original content isn't an outdated concept.
- blahedo 13y agoMaybe something like "please force my changes to be saved to disk now, even if your autosave would not normally sync for another little while", or "please tag the version as of this moment as a relevant consistent state"? There's still merit in the idea of "saving" even now (and even before allowing for the possibility of buggy implementations of always-save).
- samdunne 13y agoWhen I hover over anything in Safari it disappears. https://www.dropbox.com/s/7j32ek1lmb0l6zd/Screenshot%202013-10-29%2022.27.21.png https://www.dropbox.com/s/7j32ek1lmb0l6zd/Screenshot%202013-... Doesn't load in Firefox or any mobile browser I have on iOS (Chrome, Mobile Safari & Dolphin)
- antrix 13y agoWhy doesn't Pinboard get any love in any of these icon fonts? If they did, I'd switch from images to fonts for my personal site.
- _greim_ 13y ago[class*="icon-"] Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't this bad for performance?
- yesimahuman 13y agoYea, we're on it :) https://github.com/driftyco/ionicons/issues/7 https://github.com/driftyco/ionicons/issues/7
- nickpresta 13y agoUnfortunately, the icons look terrible on my Windows machine: http://i.imgur.com/WeTwez6.png http://i.imgur.com/WeTwez6.png (for example) Windows 7, Chrome 31.0.1650.34 beta-m.
- yesimahuman 13y agoHmm, odd. Looking into it.
- arunitc 13y agoThat's a Chrome bug - https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=137692 https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=137692 - been pending for over a year now
- arunitc 13y agoThat's a Chrome bug - https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=137692 https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=137692 - been pending for over a year now
- yesimahuman 13y agoYea, I see the same on GitHub's icons. Not sure this is something we can do anything about at this point.
- NKCSS 13y agoGotta love the expected Vs. Instead answers :)
- mixmastamyk 13y agoMany of these are already unicode characters. Do the fonts of these icon sets use the corresponding characters?
- willchilcutt 13y agoIs it just me or is the .ttf missing some of the icons? When I open the font in Font Book on my mac there are only a small fraction of the icons showing.
- yesimahuman 13y agoHmm. We had some issues today so we are going through each icon and making sure everything is good and then going to rebuild the font files.
- ris 13y agoOh look another page full of unicode placeholder symbols. When did the web become a place that is hostile to people who want to choose the fonts they read things in?
- akivabamberger 13y agoI think that might have been 1990 or 1991 but I am not sure about the exact date.
- yesimahuman 13y agoWhat? Not sure what you mean. The fonts use unicode characters for the icons like any other icon font. Anything we could do to make it more friendly?
- ris 13y agoMy point is just that icon fonts are fundamentally broken.
- Sam121 13y agoCool work got all social media icons one place. Thanks
- themodelplumber 13y agoSo Ionic is big on AngularJS...is AngularJS pretty hard to learn? It seems complicated. Say if my only framework experience was a few blogs with Python and PHP frameworks plus some average JS & jQuery experience.
- yesimahuman 13y agoIMO the hardest thing with Angular is not knowing the way to do things. Hopefully our examples and recommended practices will help a lot with that.
- welder 13y agoWhy are you creating your own instead of adding to FontAwesome? http://fortawesome.github.io/Font-Awesome/icons/ http://fortawesome.github.io/Font-Awesome/icons/
- snarkyturtle 13y agoProbably because they're creating their own mobile framework and want to stand out a bit and not be cookie-cutter.
- DonGateley 13y agoMonochrome and flat. How much more ucking fugly anything could be I can't imagine.
- i386 13y agoWould they scale up ok if I were to use them for Mac OS X apps?
- yesimahuman 13y agoYea, they would work just fine. They look best at 16px, 32px, 48px, 64px, etc. font size.
- abstractmatter 13y agoGreat Package… You have to submit ionicons to be listed in icomoon! Because I don't know your experience with Icons Fonts but I only use around 10% of the icons and there is always some icons missing… For those who don't use IcoMoon, It allows you to build custom fonts picking in different packages (Font Awesome, Entypo, Iconic, …), adding your own icons uploading svg file (e.g. your logo).
- username42 13y agoWhat is missing the most for my usage is all the symbols related to aeronautical domain (VOR, DME, TACAN, airport, beacon, ...). Something like http://www.eei.cena.fr/products/fonts/glyphes/orly-symbol1.gif http://www.eei.cena.fr/products/fonts/glyphes/orly-symbol1.g... but in beautiful vector font.
- yesimahuman 13y agoThat would be cool. I'm the only aviation nut in the group and I'm not the one designing the icons, so I don't know if it would happen, but we'll see :)
- azsxdcfv 13y agoLol, thought at first that is ui8 icons http://ui8.net/ui-icons http://ui8.net/ui-icons become MIT, looks same.
- rohitv 13y agoA bit curious about the Ionic Framework, what are the advantages when compared with jQuery Mobile?
- ehutch79 13y agoThe icons look good and all. But it's frustrating to see another icon webfont with the same (small) selection of icons as every other free icon webfont.
- yesimahuman 13y agoAny ideas on things we could add? Feel free to make a note here: https://github.com/driftyco/ionicons/issues?state=open https://github.com/driftyco/ionicons/issues?state=open
- lobo_tuerto 13y agoToo bad there is no text below the icons for fast searching.
- yesimahuman 13y agoIf you search any term in the box related to the icons, they will filter. Like "money" shows various money related icons.
- jankins 13y agothis is excellent, here it is for use in iOS projects: https://github.com/TapTemplate/ionicons-iOS https://github.com/TapTemplate/ionicons-iOS
