History & usage: The character depicts UPWARDS ARROW WITH SMALL EQUILATERAL ARROWHEAD. It signals upward direction in displays and documents. Use it to point to a higher item in a list or to indicate scrolling up in an interface. It can label a step that rises, a back reference to a previous section, or a header that moves the focus to the top. In diagrams, it shows upward movement or progress. For accessibility, pair the symbol with text labels for screen readers and keep contrast high for visibility. Cross-platform it should render with consistent weight, and users in assistive tech should hear clear description.
Copy and input: the quickest method is to copy the character here. You can also insert it by its codepoint U+1F811 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.
