Square Alert

The square-alert icon represents a warning or alert symbol, typically depicted as a square with an exclamation mark or a similar indicator inside. This symbol originates from general warning signs used in various contexts to alert users of potential dangers or issues. The visual design usually involves a bold, attention-grabbing style to convey urgency.

In software and digital platforms, the square-alert icon is commonly used in applications like Figma, Notion, and Jira to signal warnings or alerts. For instance, it might appear when a user is about to perform a critical action or when there's an issue with data input.

From a UX perspective, the square-alert icon effectively communicates caution or concern, helping users understand that an action or situation requires attention. It aids in navigation by drawing attention to potential problems, thereby preventing user errors.

Square Alert is one of 288 icons in Circum Icons, made by Klarr Agency and released under Mozilla Public License 2.0. It is drawn on a 24 × 24 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 SquareAlertIcon to components/icons/circum-square-alert.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 SquareAlertIcon 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 Square Alert icon, or any of 288 Circum 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 24 × 24 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="Square Alert", so screen readers say what it does.

Yes. SquareAlertIcon passes every SVG prop to the svg element, so <SquareAlertIcon 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.

Circum Icons is released under Mozilla Public License 2.0. The full terms are in the license, linked on this page.

Keep the Mozilla Public License 2.0 notice with the icons, and credit Klarr Agency as it asks. Mozilla Public License 2.0 is copyleft, so what you ship with them may have to use the same license.

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

Its tags are notification, warning, alert, signal, danger and square. Each tag page lists the icons that carry it from every library, which is the quickest way to find a match for Square Alert in another set.
