Subtitles

The subtitles icon represents a text overlay on video content, typically providing translations or closed captions. This feature is essential in multimedia applications, allowing users to understand audio-visual content in their preferred language. The icon is often used in video players, streaming services, and media editing software.

In software applications, the subtitles icon appears in video players like VLC, YouTube, and Netflix, where users can enable or disable subtitles while watching videos. This feature is particularly useful for users who are deaf or hard of hearing, or those watching content in a foreign language.

From a UX perspective, the subtitles icon communicates the availability of additional information or alternative content, helping users navigate and understand the functionality of the video player or media interface.

Subtitles is one of 486 icons in Pixelarticons, made by Gerrit Halfmann and released under MIT. 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 SubtitlesIcon to components/icons/pixelarticons-subtitles.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 SubtitlesIcon 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 Subtitles icon, or any of 486 Pixelarticons 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="Subtitles", so screen readers say what it does.

Yes. SubtitlesIcon passes every SVG prop to the svg element, so <SubtitlesIcon 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 Pixelarticons, Gerrit Halfmann and the license.

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