About the Pause icon
Two vertical bars side by side: the globally recognized symbol for pausing playback. It is a mandatory control in every media player, audio recorder, podcast app, and video streamer. Place it in the transport control bar and swap it to a play triangle the moment the user taps it. Its meaning is so ingrained that no label is needed. A text label only helps when 'Pause' also appears in a subscription management context.
