U+23EC "⏬" Black down-Pointing Double Triangle is a graphical symbol typically used in user interface designs to represent a downward skip, fast forward to the end, or a rapid decrease in value, often appearing in media players to jump to the next track or the end of a file. It can also indicate a quick collapse or fast movement downward in digital contexts, such as in data sorting or navigation controls. The symbol consists of two stacked downward pointing triangles, creating a clear visual of an accelerated downward direction distinct from single-triangle arrows.
