U+1F83D "🠽" Upwards Compressed Arrow Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
🠽
U+1F83D "🠽" Upwards Compressed Arrow is a specialized typographic symbol belonging to the “Supplemental Arrows-C” block, designed to represent a vertical arrow whose shaft appears shortened or compressed, often used in diagrams, flow charts, or technical documentation to indicate an upward direction with limited movement or space. Its distinctive appearance, with a broader or more compact head and a stunted line, helps differentiate it from standard upward arrows in mathematical notation, user interfaces, or print contexts where precision in spatial representation is needed.
