Definition

What Is the Right Double Arrow With Rounded Head Entity?

Right Double Arrow With Rounded Head (⥰) is the Supplemental Arrows-B character at Unicode U+2970 (RIGHTWARDS TWO HEADED ARROW WITH ROUNDED HEAD). It is a stylized rightwards two-headed arrow with a rounded head — useful for navigation buttons and UI controls.

Remember

Character     ⥰
Unicode       U+2970
Hex entity    &#x2970;
Decimal       &#10608;

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">

  <meta charset="UTF-8">
  <title>Right Double Arrow With Rounded Head (⥰) in HTML</title>
  <style>
    #point::after {
      content: "\2970";
    }
  </style>

<body>
  <p>Using Hex Code: &#x2970;</p>
  <p>Using HTML Code: &#10608;</p>
  <p id="point">Using CSS Entity: </p>
  <p><a href="#">Next &#x2970;</a></p>
</body>
</html>

Try It Yourself

How It Works

1. Hex: U+2970 → ⥰ in HTML. The browser turns it into ⥰.

2. Decimal: same code point as 10608 → ⥰. Same result as hex.

3. CSS: use \2970 in content (not an HTML entity). #point::after appends that ⥰ after the paragraph text.

4. No named entity: HTML5 does not define &…; for this character — stick to numeric forms.

Pitfalls & Tips

Common mistakes when working with Right Double Arrow With Rounded Head.

Look-alikes

⥰ ≠ ⇒ ≠ ⤃

Rounded-head two-headed arrow, plain double (⇒), and vertical-stroke double (&nvrArr;) are different characters.

Named

No named entity

There is no HTML5 named entity. Guessing names will not work — use ⥰.

Fonts

Glyph may vary

Supplemental Arrows-B needs a supporting font. Test on your target devices if the rounded head must be clear.

CSS vs HTML

Do not mix escapes

\2970 belongs in CSS. ⥰ / ⥰ belong in HTML.

A11y

Add nearby words

Pair the glyph with text like “Next”, or use aria-label on icon-only controls.

Semicolon

End references

Always finish with ; — write ⥰, not &#x2970.
