💡 What does ◀️ mean?

When someone drops ◀️ into a message, the intent is usually tied to Av Symbol. As part of the Av Symbol group within Symbols, it fills a specific niche that text alone can't easily convey — adding visual context in an instant.

Drop it into conversations, bios, or posts. It conveys tone instantly — something plain text struggles to do on its own.

In the same family as 🏧 Automated Teller Machine, 🚮 Put Litter In Its Place Symbol, 🚰 Potable Water Symbol. Together they cover a broader range of expression within Symbols.

First introduced in Unicode 0.6.
