What is he?

The response icon does not mean that the icon size changes with the size of the screen, but it means that the icon changes its size depending on what device it is in. This means that the screen size is not as important to the icon as it can be automatically adjusted to make it bigger and smaller--at the same time, on the same screen. The differences in the design of the icons are not too obvious, and they are generally a matter of detail. For details, please look at the following figure:

If you are ready to develop a response icon, here are a few options for you to choose from, and these are the possible ways that iconic has already groped for your reference.
