Heavy up arrow with a large equilateral head

Its thick stem and large triangular head are distinctive. The head is an equilateral triangle: all three sides are equal. “Heavy” describes the arrow’s thick strokes, not the weight of an object it points to.

🠝 is a character in its own right, not an ordinary arrow with bold formatting applied. Use it to make an upward direction or a reference to something above visually prominent. Changing the font may change its details, but it remains the same character.

What does it mean in a message?

Look at what the arrow points toward. Beneath a message or picture, it can mean “this bit above”. Alongside instructions, it can mean “move up”. The arrow directs attention; the accompanying words explain what the sender wants you to notice or do.

If you use it yourself, add a short label when the target is unclear. A line break or a different screen layout can separate the arrow from the thing you meant to point at.
