Play Circle O

The play-circle-o icon represents a play button within a circle, often used to indicate a media player or streaming service. This icon originates from the early days of digital media, where play buttons were used to start audio or video playback. The play-circle-o variant specifically features a circle outline, making it easily recognizable on various platforms.

The play-circle-o icon appears in software like VLC media player, YouTube, Netflix, and other streaming services. It's commonly used to indicate a playable media file, allowing users to start playback.

From a UX perspective, the play-circle-o icon effectively communicates the action of starting or resuming media playback. Its circular shape and play symbol make it easily understandable across different cultures and languages.

Play Circle O is one of 649 icons in Font Awesome 4, made by Dave Gandy and released under Open Font License. It is drawn on a 1536 × 1536 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 PlayCircleOIcon to components/icons/fa-play-circle-o.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 PlayCircleOIcon 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 Play Circle O icon, or any of 649 Font Awesome 4 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 1536 × 1536 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="Play Circle O", so screen readers say what it does.

Yes. PlayCircleOIcon passes every SVG prop to the svg element, so <PlayCircleOIcon 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. The Open Font License allows commercial use; the icons can't be sold on their own. The full terms are in the license, linked on this page.

No visible credit is required: Open Font License 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 Font Awesome 4, Dave Gandy and the license.

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