Icon

ion-icon
Icons can be used on their own, or inside of a number of Ionic components. For a full list of available icons, check out the Ionicons docs.
One feature of Ionicons in Ionic is when icon names are set, the actual icon
which is rendered can change slightly depending on the mode the app is
running from. For example, by setting the icon name of alarm
, on iOS the
icon will automatically apply ios-alarm
, and on Material Design it will
automatically apply md-alarm
. This allows the developer to write the
markup once while Ionic applies the appropriate icon based on the mode.
Usage
<!-- automatically uses the correct "star" icon depending on the mode -->
<ion-icon name="star"></ion-icon>
<!-- explicity set the icon for each mode -->
<ion-icon ios="ios-home" md="md-home"></ion-icon>
<!-- always use the same icon, no matter what the mode -->
<ion-icon name="ios-clock"></ion-icon>
<ion-icon name="logo-twitter"></ion-icon>
