Uber has introduced a new icon system

When to evolve a design system.Rebuilding Uber’s icon language. Every day, millions of people navigate Uber’s apps with the help of icons. They may be small, but they play an important role in the interface: ensuring clarity, helping riders find their way, keeping drivers informed, and letting customers follow their orders. When they work well, they create clarity, continuity, and trust across the experience. When that breaks down, the signal becomes impossible to ignore.
​
Over the past year, our Base design system team turned those signals into action, rebuilding Uber’s icon library to restore clarity, accessibility, and consistency across our global platform, while creating a more scalable visual language and a stronger design-to-code pipeline.
