Find sizes and best practices for icons and indicators.
Icons and indicators are pictorial representations of objects. They can visually identify your application and also convey
meaning to users quickly.

Best practice: Designing icons and
indicators
• Use application icons and simple graphics that clearly represent the application, action, or component.
• Use imagery that users are likely to recognize. For example, for an email message icon, users are more likely to
recognize a postage stamp than a rural mailbox. Be aware that graphics can have different meanings in different
cultures.
• Use a similar perspective to existing application icons. Align your application icon with other application icons.
• Limit the number of colors in your color palette.
• Use colors consistently.
• Avoid text and numbers in icons and graphics because they require localization.
