# Notification animated icon

> Notification micro animation for React and shadcn. It toggles between two states on click; free MIT Lottie and SVG.

Use the Notification icon for reminder and alert subscription buttons: it toggles between two states on click and takes 0.83 s. Its static SVGs cover the bell-off and bell states, so the resting icon still shows which one is active. Also known as bell, alarm and reminder.

  let isOn = true; // Frame 0 is on; the final frame is off.
  el.addEventListener('click', () => { isOn = !isOn; if (motion.matches) a.goToAndStop(isOn ? 0 : a.totalFrames - 1, true); else { a.setDirection(isOn ? -1 : 1); a.play(); } });

- [Notification V4](https://useanimations.com/icons/notification-v4): Notification V4 loops continuously, is longer at 2 s instead of 0.83 s and has a single static state.

## FAQ

### Can my app decide whether Notification shows bell-off or bell?

Make it controlled: pass active and flip it in onClick, e.g. active={on} onClick={() => setOn(!on)}. true plays to the last frame and false back to the first; an icon that mounts with active already true starts there without animating, and with reduced motion it jumps instead of playing.

### How do I make Notification an accessible button?

Put its events on a real button with the render prop: render={(events, icon) => <button aria-label="Notification" aria-pressed={on} {...events}><span {...icon} /></button>}. The animation itself stays aria-hidden, and aria-pressed tells screen readers which state is on.
