heavy upper right-shadowed white rightwards arrow

Heavy Upper Right-Shadowed White Rightwards Arrow

144/159

➮ is a decorative arrow pointing right; it works as a visual marker, not a message with one fixed social meaning. It is a dingbat, a small font symbol used as a marker or ornament alongside text.

Text symbol

What ➮ means

Unicode's 2002 account of Unicode 3.2 describes the Dingbats block as derived from ITC Zapf Dingbats series 100, an established symbol font, and says its order roughly follows that font's PostScript encoding, a system for laying out printed pages. The same account notes that many dingbats rely on their particular shapes: another right arrow may keep the direction but changes this ornament's design.

Why does ➮ show as a box on some devices?

Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
