What ⤉ means
⤉ is the upwards arrow with horizontal stroke. 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, U2909. In HTML that is ⤉, and in CSS \2909.
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.
