U+21E8 "" Rightwards White Arrow is a typographic symbol that represents a hollow or unfilled arrow pointing to the right, distinct from its solid counterpart by its white interior and outlined shape. It belongs to the Arrows block of the Unicode standard and is commonly used in digital interfaces, diagrams, and text to indicate direction, progression, or a navigational cue such as "next step" or "move forward." Its design often conveys a lighter, less emphatic tone than a solid arrow, making it suitable for contexts where visual subtlety or a modern aesthetic is preferred.
