What 🢝 means
It joins a heavy arrowhead to its shaft. Unicode's proposal traces the design to Wingdings, whose original fonts appeared in 1992, and identifies this two-thirds shaft piece as part of Wingdings 3.
The segment is designed to fit matching heavy arrowheads and other shaft widths. A 2011 proposal explains that older files could store Wingdings symbols in private-use codes, set aside for custom symbols, or through font formatting. Unicode gives this piece a portable character value.

Questions people ask
1Why does this symbol show as a square?
