Sleep Icons
A crescent moon, often paired with "Zzz" letters, is the standard visual for "rest" or "inactive" — sleep tracking apps, dark mode toggles, "do not disturb" settings, device standby indicators. This page collects sleep icon variants across Pathwork's libraries, from a plain outline moon to filled or star-accompanied versions, so you can match the exact weight your settings toggle or tracking dashboard needs.

Frequently Asked Questions
They're often the identical crescent-moon shape, and the meaning is inferred entirely from context — next to a 'dark mode' toggle it represents display theme, while in a health or wellness app it represents sleep tracking. If both features exist in the same product, consider adding the 'Zzz' detail specifically to the sleep-tracking icon to help distinguish it from the theme toggle.
The moon alone is often sufficient and is the more common minimal choice, especially for a dark mode toggle. Adding 'Zzz' makes the icon more specifically about sleep or rest rather than general night-time/theme association, which is useful if you need to differentiate it from a nearby dark mode icon in the same interface.
A moon icon is a common convention for this specifically (borrowed from smartphone OS conventions like iOS's 'Do Not Disturb' moon icon), often distinct from a bell-with-slash icon (from Pathwork's Bell type page) which represents notifications being muted more generally rather than a scheduled quiet period.
Both are used depending on emphasis — the moon icon suits general navigation or a settings toggle related to sleep mode, while a bed icon more literally represents the act of sleeping and can work well for a dashboard summary card or a 'log your sleep' action button.
Each icon keeps the license from its source library attached to it, and terms can differ depending on which library a specific icon comes from. Check the license shown on the individual icon's page before using it commercially.
Yes, this is the standard pairing — moon and sun icons are commonly used together as a toggle pair (for dark/light mode, or sleep/wake states), swapping between the two based on the current setting, similar to how other binary toggles pair opposite icons.
