Icon Request: fa-google-play [will be available in Font Awesome 5]

[Vilscon]

Hey guys,

I'm really surprised there is no Google-play-store icon and neither a request for it at all. So here am I requesting an FontAwesome Google Play Store icon.

See the attachment for the SVG of the Google Play store. ;)

Thanks!

While I like the idea in reality it is just a triangle, without the color detail it is not recognisable as a brand icon

[Vilscon]

Partially, I agree. However, black and white, or just outlines does include the two crossing lines, which create the 4 different colours on the triangle. So the triangle itself, but also those two inner 'lines' together as a whole is recognizable. Therefor, I think it's possible to create a simple abstract FontAwesome icon!

[vidoardes]

But you can't colorise a font, its a solid color. Best you could do is something like below

[Vilscon]

Yes, that's exactly what I meant. That could be the fa-Google-play-o icon and you couldinvert it, so black shapes with white intersecting lines separating all shapes, which would be fa-google-play icon. :)

[vidoardes]

So like this?

[Vilscon]

Yes, indeed! First one was the outlined one, this is the solid one. Very nice!

Feedback: I do see some black pixels near the bottom, within the white seperating lines - Fix that tiny issue and they are perfect!

Thank you!

This was just a quick mockup in photoshop, I am sure davegandy will do a
much better job if / when he adds it ;)

Ah, I thought the font was created with the support of users - They upload their SVG's and Dave will judge them and add if okay. Oh well; Thanks! :)

I found a better version of this icon here:

But personally I would actually prefer to use this other icon below, for the Google Play Store. IMHO it works better as an icon, and it's arguably more recognisable, and it's still currently in use by Google (you can see it in the menu in the top-left at https://play.google.com/store)...

Why hasn't this icon been added yet? it is a pretty important brand icon.

[tagliala]

Hi, thanks for all your reactions to this request!

This icon will be included in the upcoming Font Awesome 5 Free. 🎉

I'm going to close this request for management purposes

Regards
