I’ve mentioned some libraries for the use of the iconic Fontawesome within apps such as this library allowing you to create flat buttons with Fontawesome icons.
Here’s a library called Ionicons-iOS from TapTemplate that enables easy use of the Ionicons open source font within iOS apps.
The nice thing about the Ionicons font is that it contains many different iOS 7 system icons and using Ionicons iOS presents you with a number of new ways to use the icons along with size and color customization options and compatibility with iOS 5+.
With Ionicons-iOS you can use IonIcons as a UIFont, as a UILabel, and as a UIImage.

You can find the Ionicons font over on the homepage.
A very nice library, and a nice iconic font.
