Every symbol is a standard Unicode character – it pastes into bios, usernames, messages and documents without installing a font. Browse all 5000+ in the text symbols library.

Arrow symbols are among the most copied characters on the web because they do a job plain punctuation cannot: point at something. A → in a bio sends readers to the link below it, a ↳ marks a reply or a sub-item, a ⇒ reads as "therefore" in notes, and a ➤ makes a plain list look designed. Unicode has several hundred of them, spread across the Arrows, Supplemental Arrows, Dingbats and Miscellaneous Symbols blocks, and this page collects them all.

Everything here is a real text character, so it pastes into Instagram and TikTok bios, Discord and Slack messages, LinkedIn posts, Google Docs, Notion, spreadsheets, code comments and email. No image, no font install.

Types of Unicode Arrow Symbols

The simple arrows (→ ← ↑ ↓) come from the Arrows block and have thin, neutral strokes that match body text. The Dingbats block adds the heavy, decorative arrows (➤ ➜ ➔ ➡ ➽) that stand out in bios and headers. Double arrows (⇒ ⇔ ⟹) are borrowed from logic and mathematics, where ⇒ means "implies". Curved and hooked arrows (↩ ↪ ↳ ⤴) come from typesetting and describe returns, replies and continuation.

  • Simple: → ← ↑ ↓ ↔ ↕ – neutral arrows for lists and directions
  • Heavy and decorative: ➤ ➜ ➔ ➡ ➽ ➸ – bold arrows for bios and call-to-action lines
  • Double: ⇒ ⇐ ⇔ ⟹ ⟸ – "implies" and "if and only if" in maths and notes
  • Long: ⟶ ⟵ ⟷ – extended arrows for diagrams and timelines
  • Curved and hooked: ↩ ↪ ↳ ↰ ⤴ ⤵ – replies, sub-items, returns
  • Diagonal: ↗ ↘ ↙ ↖ ⬈ ⬊ – trends, growth and external links
  • Circular: ↻ ↺ ⟳ ⟲ 🔄 – refresh, repeat and loop
  • Paired: ⇄ ⇅ ⇆ ⇵ – exchange, swap, sync

Arrow Symbols in Bios, Posts and Documents

The most common use is the "link in bio" pointer: a ↓ or ⬇ on the last line of an Instagram or TikTok bio, or → before a call to action. On LinkedIn, ➤ and ✔ are the standard way to make a bullet list, because LinkedIn strips real list formatting. In Discord and Slack, ↳ at the start of a message signals a reply to the line above. In documents and spreadsheets, → and ⇒ replace "leads to" and "therefore", and ↗ ↘ mark rising and falling numbers.

Arrows That Turn into Emoji

A handful of arrows – ➡ ⬅ ⬆ ⬇ ↔ ↕ ↗ ↘ ↙ ↖ ↩ ↪ ⤴ ⤵ 🔄 – are also emoji. On phones they may render as a blue emoji square rather than a plain text arrow, depending on the app. If you want the plain text look, choose a neighbouring arrow that is not an emoji, such as → instead of ➡ or ⇧ instead of ⬆.

Typing Arrows from the Keyboard

Windows: Alt + 26 (→), Alt + 27 (←), Alt + 24 (↑), Alt + 25 (↓) on the numeric keypad, or Win + . and search "arrow". macOS: Ctrl + Cmd + Space and search "arrow". Google Docs converts "->" into → automatically, and LaTeX users know \rightarrow and \Rightarrow. For everything else, copying from this page is faster.
