South East Double Arrow Symbol Meaning
⇘ (U+21D8) is a double-headed arrow pointing to the south east (down and right). The most common meaning is direction: it can indicate a path, movement, or progression toward the bottom-right. Because it has two arrowheads, it can also imply an exchange or continued flow in that directional sense, depending on the context. In interface text, it often acts like a compact “go” or “proceed toward” cue. In diagrams and layout notes, it can show where something moves, continues, or should be directed visually.
Common uses
- •Directional cues in diagrams (e.g., flowcharts or process diagrams)
- •User interface labels to indicate moving down-right or progressing
- •Instructional text for navigation or step-by-step guidance
- •Graphic design annotations for layout movement or alignment
- •Document and presentation callouts showing continued movement
