Heavy Arrow Shaft Width One 🢜
🢜 (U+1F89C) 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: Heavy Arrow Shaft Width One 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 HEAVY ARROW SHAFT WIDTH ONE depicts a heavy arrow with a single shaft width. Arrows commonly indicate direction and navigation cues in interfaces and documents. In UI design, it can mark the next step in a flow or point toward a meaningful action. In technical diagrams, it shows movement or emphasis along a path. In instructional guides, it directs readers to follow a route or sequence. Across these uses, it helps users scan content quickly and follow intended routes. For cross‑platform work, ensure the symbol renders clearly at different sizes. If possible, provide sufficient color contrast and text labels for accessibility, so screen readers and low‑vision users understand the navigation cue.
Copy and input: the quickest method is to copy the character here. You can also insert it by its codepoint U+1F89C
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.

Compatibility & troubleshooting

Web pages: ensure your CSS font stack includes a general fallback; avoid relying on images for common symbols to preserve accessibility and copyability.
