Swap Arrows symbol

Type :swap_arrows: · Arrows

What ⇄ is for

Two arrows pointing opposite ways, for an exchange: swapping two values, switching accounts, a bidirectional transfer. Clearer than a single two-headed arrow because it shows two separate movements.

How to type ⇄

The shortcuts below are the built-in routes. With Emoji Anywhere installed you can skip all of them and type :swap_arrows: 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 21C4 with Option held.

Windows

No Alt code. In Word, type 21C4 then press Alt + X. Elsewhere use the emoji panel with Win + Period, or Character Map.
