Eject symbol

Type :eject: · Tech & keys

What ⏏ is for

The eject symbol, a triangle over a bar. Survives from physical media into the modern Mac keyboard, where it still sits in the corner on models with optical-drive ancestry.

How to type ⏏

The shortcuts below are the built-in routes. With Emoji Anywhere installed you can skip all of them and type :eject: in any text field instead, which is the same on every platform.

macOS

No direct shortcut. Use Edit → Emoji & Symbols, or switch to the Unicode Hex Input source and type 23CF with Option held.

Windows

No Alt code. In Word, type 23CF then press Alt + X. Elsewhere use the emoji panel with Win + Period, or Character Map.
