🠯 (U+1F82F) 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: Downwards Triangle-Headed Arrow with Heavy Shaft is part of the Symbols family (block: Supplemental Arrows-C). If you need styled or decorative alternatives, try our Fancy Text tool to generate compatible text that works in most modern interfaces.
History & usage: The character depicts DOWNWARDS TRIANGLE-HEADED ARROW WITH HEAVY SHAFT. It signals direction through a bold, pointed arrow. In interfaces, it can indicate a move or transition that points toward a lower option or next step. In documents, it helps readers follow a sequence or flow by guiding the eye from one item to the next. In tutorials or help guides, it can mark the next action, making steps clear and intuitive for users. The symbol can also appear in navigation menus or diagrams to show downward progress or a collapsed section that expands. Cross‑platform it renders as a visible arrow and remains important for accessibility when text alone might not convey movement or order.
Copy and input: the quickest method is to copy the character here. You can also insert it by its codepoint U+1F82F 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.
