Notification Circle Icon

Q: When should I use it instead of a similar icon?

Use it for mark as unread rows in a message or email overflow menu, putting the dot back on that thread; and unread only filters in an inbox or activity feed toolbar, hiding everything already seen. For an app tile or dashboard card with new activity waiting, use the Notification Square icon. For a new chat reply or DM waiting in a messenger, use the Message Notify icon. For the header trigger that opens the full alerts list, use the Notification icon.

Circle with a small badge dot at the upper right, for unread indicators and notification counts. Available in 4 styles (outline, solid, duotone and filled) as a React component you install with the shadcn CLI.

Notification Circle icon FAQ

What does this icon show?

Circle with a small badge dot at the upper right, for unread indicators and notification counts. Typical uses: unread indicator on a list item, online status dot on an avatar and new activity marker in a sidebar.

When should I use it instead of a similar icon?

Use it for:

Mark as unread rows in a message or email overflow menu, putting the dot back on that thread
Unread only filters in an inbox or activity feed toolbar, hiding everything already seen

For an app tile or dashboard card with new activity waiting, use the Notification Square icon. For a new chat reply or DM waiting in a messenger, use the Message Notify icon. For the header trigger that opens the full alerts list, use the Notification icon.

Which styles does it come in?

4 styles: Outline, Solid, Duotone and Filled. Every style is drawn on the same 24 by 24 grid and installs as its own file, so you can switch styles without touching the layout.

How do I install it with the shadcn CLI?

Copy the install command from the panel above, in the style you want, and run it in your project. The shadcn CLI adds the icon as a React component that you import and render like any other. It draws in the current text color, so your text color and size classes style it. Icon installs need a ReUI Ultimate license.

What icons go well with it?

Icons from the same family and the Alerts set: Notification, Notification Bing, Notification Favorite, Notification On, Notification Square and Notification Status.

When was it added?

It joined the ReUI icon library on June 30, 2026.
