Clock Face Five-Thirty 🕠
🕠 (U+1F560) is a standard Unicode character that you can copy and paste anywhere text is accepted. This page provides a concise reference with safe tips, internal links, and practical guidance so you can use it reliably across apps and platforms.
What it is and where it’s used: Clock Face Five-Thirty is part of the Symbols family (block: Miscellaneous Symbols and Pictographs). If you need styled or decorative alternatives, try our Fancy Text tool to generate compatible text that works in most modern interfaces.
History & usage: CLOCK FACE FIVE-THIRTY depicts a clock face showing five thirty. It can mark meeting times or deadlines in messages and apps. It helps schedule reminders and quick time references, for example in chat or notes. It can appear in dashboards or calendars to indicate events around 5:30. Variants in appearance across platforms can affect color, style, and legibility, so ensure your UI keeps the meaning clear. Use it thoughtfully to avoid ambiguity in formal content. If a platform lacks color emoji support, consider a text fallback. For accessibility, provide surrounding text that explains the time and purpose so screen readers convey the right meaning to users.
Copy and input: the quickest method is to copy the character here. You can also insert it by its codepoint U+1F560 in many development tools or editors. Some operating systems provide a character viewer or input palette that lets you search by name or code and insert the glyph into documents.
Display and fallback: if you see an empty box (tofu) or a placeholder rectangle, the active font might not include this codepoint. Switching to a font with broader Unicode coverage or using a fallback font usually fixes the issue. On the web, ensure the page’s font stack includes a general‑purpose fallback.
