Wide-headed North East Heavy Barb Arrow Symbol Meaning

🡽 is the Unicode character named “WIDE-HEADED NORTH EAST HEAVY BARB ARROW.” Visually, it points diagonally toward the north east and has a thick, heavy barbed arrow style, which makes it stand out as a “strong” direction marker compared with lighter arrows. Commonly, it’s used in contexts where you want to specify a precise diagonal direction, such as navigation notes, layout or UI guidance, mapping annotations, or instructional text describing an action direction. In designs, it can help add emphasis to direction-related labels without needing an external image.

Common uses
