Pause Fill

The pause-fill icon represents a pause button with a filled design. It is commonly used to indicate a pause or stop action in media players, videos, or music streaming services. The icon originates from the early days of audio and video playback, where a pause button was necessary to temporarily stop the playback. The visual design of the icon typically features a rectangular shape with two parallel vertical lines, signifying the pause state.

In real-world applications, the pause-fill icon appears in various software and platforms such as video streaming services like Netflix, music players like Spotify, and video editing software like Adobe Premiere Pro. It is often used alongside play, stop, and rewind buttons to provide users with basic media control functionality.

From a UX perspective, the pause-fill icon communicates the action of temporarily stopping media playback. It helps users understand that clicking or tapping the icon will pause the current media, allowing them to resume playback later. The icon's design and placement within the interface guide users in navigating the media controls.

Pause Fill is one of 2,084 icons in Bootstrap Icons, made by The Bootstrap Authors and released under MIT. It is drawn on a 16 × 16 grid.

Sign in (it's free), then open Get icon, Install with shadcn CLI, and pick your package manager to copy the command. It adds PauseFillIcon to components/icons/bi-pause-fill.tsx: one file, a size prop (24 by default) and every SVG prop, with no icon package.

Copy it as React (from Get icon, or the Code section): a typed PauseFillIcon component you paste into your project, with no package to install. Only the icons you import reach your bundle. It works in Next.js and any React app.

Open Get icon, then Copy as code, and pick Vue, Svelte, Angular, Solid or Preact; the Code section shows each one too. Every version is one self-contained component with the SVG inside, and SVG and data URL copies are there for plain HTML and CSS.

With Pro, the shadcn.io MCP server lets Claude Code, Cursor or any MCP client find the Pause Fill icon, or any of 2,084 Bootstrap Icons icons, and install it from a prompt.

It's drawn in currentColor, so it takes the text color wherever you use it: a class like text-primary recolors it. To bake a color in, set one in Customize before you copy.

Set width and height on the component, or a class like size-6. It's drawn on a 16 × 16 grid, so it stays sharp at any size. Customize also sets the size it exports at, its padding and rotation.

Yes. It follows the text color, so with text-foreground (or any theme token) it changes with your light and dark themes. The icon is a vector, so it needs no separate dark asset.

Next to a visible label it's decoration: add aria-hidden="true" so screen readers skip it. Standing alone, as in an icon button, give the button a name instead, like aria-label="Pause Fill", so screen readers say what it does.

Yes. PauseFillIcon passes every SVG prop to the svg element, so <PauseFillIcon aria-hidden="true" /> works, and so do role="img" with aria-label, or a title child, when it carries meaning on its own.

Yes. Open Get icon, then Download file: SVG for code or design tools like Figma; PNG, WebP or JPEG at 512px; or an ICO favicon with 16, 32 and 48px inside. Each one uses what you set in Customize.

Yes. MIT allows commercial use; keep the license notice when you ship the icons' source files. The full terms are in the license, linked on this page.

No visible credit is required: MIT only asks that you keep the license notice if you ship the icons' source files. Icons installed with the shadcn CLI already start with a comment naming Bootstrap Icons, The Bootstrap Authors and the license.

Yes. Copying and downloading it is free, and the shadcn CLI install only needs a free account.
