Circle With Left Half Black Symbol Meaning
◐ is the Unicode character named “CIRCLE WITH LEFT HALF BLACK” (U+25D0). Visually, it’s a circle split by a vertical line, with the left side filled black and the right side left unfilled. Because it clearly communicates “left vs. right” in a compact form, people often use it as a visual indicator in UI mockups, labels, or status displays. It can also function as a minimalist icon for ideas like partial completion, directional emphasis, or toggled/weighted states—especially when you need something that works in plain text, fonts, and code without images.
