## Icon picker

Icons in Homarr are automatically requested from multiple sources:

- [Dashboard Icons](https://dashboardicons.com/) - Our recommended source with over 1888+ curated, high-quality icons
- [selfh.st icons](https://github.com/selfhst/icons)
- [Simple icons](https://github.com/simple-icons/simple-icons)
- [Tabler icons](https://tabler-icons.io/)
- [Papirus icons](https://github.com/PapirusDevelopmentTeam/papirus-icon-theme)
- [Homelab Svg assets](https://github.com/loganmarchione/homelab-svg-assets)
- **Local icons**: automatically fetched from the [medias feature](https://homarr.dev/docs/management/media/)

Using these icon sources, Homarr provides a total collection of over 11,000 icons at your fingertips. The icon picker is a fast searcher that helps you to find your desired icon simply by entering a search term.

### Finding Missing Icons

If you can't find the icon you're looking for in Homarr's built-in picker, we strongly recommend checking [Dashboard Icons](https://dashboardicons.com/). It offers a modern, user-friendly interface and a curated collection of high-quality icons specifically designed for dashboards and app directories.

Icons that are high quality and printable ([SVG](https://wikipedia.org/wiki/Scalable_Vector_Graphics)) are marked with a red badge "SVG" at the top right.

### Using external icons

If you don't find the icon you're looking for on Dashboard Icons or wish to use a different source, you can simply enter a URL that points to an icon. It is important that the URL directly points to the file without any advertisements or elements around it.
