Warning symbol

Type :warn: · Marks

What ⚠ is for

The warning triangle. Widely rendered as a colour emoji rather than a plain glyph, which matters if it is going into a terminal, a log line or anywhere a coloured icon would look out of place.

How to type ⚠

The shortcuts below are the built-in routes. With Emoji Anywhere installed you can skip all of them and type :warn: 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 26A0 with Option held.

Windows

No Alt code. In Word, type 26A0 then press Alt + X. Elsewhere use the emoji panel with Win + Period, or Character Map.
