U+21F6 "⇶" Three Rightwards Arrows Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+21F6 "⇶" Three Rightwards Arrows is a typographic symbol found in the Arrows block, representing a sequence of three horizontal arrows pointing to the right. It is often used in mathematical notation, UI design, or diagrammatic contexts to indicate a continuous forward process, fast forwarding, or a series of consecutive steps or actions moving in one direction. Unlike a single arrow, this triple glyph emphasizes multiplicity, acceleration, or the idea of multiple outputs or concurrent forward motions. Despite its specific appearance, it is not commonly included in standard fonts and may require a Unicode-compatible font for proper display.
