U+1F8B2 "🢲" Rightwards Arrow with Lower Hook is a typographic symbol included in the Unicode standard's Arrows block, specifically within the range designated for supplemental arrows. It depicts an arrow pointing to the right whose tail descends into a small, downward curve or hook at the lower end. This character is typically used in technical diagrams, flowcharts, or specialized notation to indicate a directional shift, a return path, or a branching action that involves a lower level or subsequent step.
