Free Access to Icons
With the Noun Project plugin for Figma, you get free access to our entire collection of nearly 10 million icons in PNG format. As a free user, you can insert as many PNG icons as you’d like into your projects with artist attribution. Every icon comes with a simple, clear license, so you can design with confidence.
Need even more flexibility? Upgrade to Pro to use icons without attribution, unlock SVG icons, access larger PNG icon sizes, and get color customization tools.
Easy Installation & User Experience
Getting started is simple. You can install the plugin directly from Noun Project’s profile in the Figma Community, or simply search for “Noun Project Icons” in the Figma plugin library.
Once installed, click “save” to keep the plugin handy for all your future projects. You’ll always be just a click away from millions of high-quality icons—accessible directly from the toolbar, right-click menu, or plugin manager inside any Figma file.
Our plugin is designed to keep you in flow. Instead of breaking your concentration by switching tabs and downloading files, you can search for the icons you need right inside Figma.
Insert icons with a single click, drag and drop them into your design, or add them straight from detail pages. Every icon drops seamlessly into the active frame you’re working on, helping you move faster from idea to execution.
Customization & Editing
Icons shouldn’t just fit your design. They should feel like they were made for your project.
When you upgrade to Pro, the Noun Project plugin gives you powerful customization options before you even insert an icon. Change colors using preset palettes, enter hex or RGB values, or switch between solid and line styles to match your design system.
Once inserted, you can resize icons with ease, or edit SVGs using Figma’s vector tools to tweak stroke weight, anchor points, fills, and more.
A Pro subscription removes the need for attribution and includes worry-free licenses for personal or commercial use. Pro members can enjoy a more streamlined, professional workflow while directly supporting the global community of creators who contribute artwork to Noun Project.

No payment is required to use the icon plugin or to add any of our nearly 10 million images to your file.
