What ⤺ means
⤺ is the top arc anticlockwise arrow. Unicode classifies it as a mathematical symbol and files it in the Supplemental Arrows-B block; this site shelves it under Arrows.
Its appearance depends on the font and text styling.
How it is encoded
⤺ is a single code point, U293A. In HTML that is ⤺, and in CSS \293A.
Questions people ask
1Why 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.
