Volume Icon Generator

What the volume icon means

Audio output level. The number of arcs indicates loudness, and zero arcs plus a cross means muted.

Media icons are the most universally understood class in computing. A right-pointing triangle means play in every culture and on every platform, and two vertical bars mean pause with no ambiguity at all. That reliability comes from geometric simplicity, which also makes them excellent app icons — they hold together at any size. The trade-off is that a play triangle is claimed by a thousand products, so any distinctiveness must come from the container, colour or an added element.

Where you will actually see it

• player volume controls
• system sound settings
• meeting audio controls

Drawing the volume at 16 pixels

The outer arc is the thinnest and breaks first. One arc reads as "sound on" perfectly well at small sizes.

Stroke weight is the control that matters most here. Lucide icons are drawn on a 24 × 24 grid with a 2px stroke, which means that when the icon is scaled down to 16px the stroke is effectively 1.33px — below one device pixel on a standard-density display. Raising the stroke to 2.5 or 3 before exporting keeps the shape solid; lowering it to 1.5 suits large app icons where a heavy stroke looks clumsy. The editor exposes this as a slider, so you can find the value that survives your smallest target size rather than guessing.

Using it in code

If you want the icon in a Vue project rather than as a downloaded asset, it is a named export of the lucide package:

import { Volume2 } from 'lucide-vue-next'

<Volume2 :size="24" :stroke-width="2" />

The download button above gives you something different: the icon composed onto a background with a corner radius, exported as a flat SVG path set. The exporter converts the icon out of its <foreignObject> wrapper first, because a foreign object taints an HTML canvas and would otherwise break PNG and ICO rasterisation.
