Upwards Harpoon With Barb Right From Bar Symbol Meaning
⥜ is a directional, harpoon-like arrow symbol: it points upward and includes a bar element, with a barb on the right. In plain text, it’s often chosen when you want a distinctive arrow shape compared with standard arrows like ↑ or ↥. Designers may use it to suggest an action that “pulls” or “targets” something upward. Writers and editors sometimes use it for stylized diagrams, callouts, or schematic notation where a more ornate arrow is preferable. Because this is a specific Unicode character with a descriptive name, its meaning is primarily visual rather than widely established in everyday language.
Common uses
- •UI icons or micro-graphics to represent “upward action” or “pull up” in compact interfaces
- •Flow diagrams and schematic callouts where a custom arrow style improves clarity
- •Document markup and annotations to indicate an upward reference or linkage
- •Design systems and typography sets that require a consistent, distinctive arrow character
- •Chat and social posts for emphasis or playful, directional styling beyond basic arrows
