Square In Circle Icon

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

Use it for stop controls on audio and video players, screen recorders and voice memo screens; and halting a streaming AI reply, a running build or a long query from its progress row. For cancelling an upload or a pending invite, which discards it for good, use the Cross Circle icon. For the resume control once a track, video or recording has been halted, use the Play Circle icon.

Animated

Square In Circle icon FAQ

What does this icon show?

Rounded square centred inside a circle, for stop buttons, recording controls and media players. Typical uses: stop button in a media player, end recording control in a recorder and halt action in a running task row.

When should I use it instead of a similar icon?

Use it for:

Stop controls on audio and video players, screen recorders and voice memo screens
Halting a streaming AI reply, a running build or a long query from its progress row

For cancelling an upload or a pending invite, which discards it for good, use the Cross Circle icon. For the resume control once a track, video or recording has been halted, use the Play Circle 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. An animated variant also plays a short animation on hover, or whenever your code starts it.

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 Shapes set: Arcs Radiate, Circle Diamond, Circle Pinwheel, Circle Ring, Circle Swirl and Circle Weave.

When was it added, and what was it called before?

It joined the ReUI icon library on June 30, 2026. It was previously named abstract-5, and that install name still resolves to this icon.
