Up-Left Arrow ↖ Emoji: Meaning & Usage
An upper-left diagonal arrow — representing movement toward the upper-left, the northwest direction in navigation, and any spatial context requiring this specific backward-and-upward diagonal direction. In interface contexts, upper-left movement often suggests returning to a previous and higher-level state.
In compass navigation, this is the northwest direction. Used for northwest navigation, spatial direction in maps and diagrams, interface navigation returning to a higher level, and any context where the specific upper-left diagonal path is the relevant directional information to communicate.
