Meaning & usage
Check mark button (✅) can mark a confirmation, a selection or a contrasting negative result.
A check and an X are not interchangeable; keep the surrounding text explicit when showing a status.
U+2705 identifies this exact check mark button form; copying the character preserves its Unicode identity, while its appearance depends on the font or emoji renderer.
check mark button occupies one Unicode code point. A similar-looking letter, punctuation mark or emoji is not necessarily interchangeable with ✅ in search, filenames or text processing.
How to type check mark button
- Windows
- Use Win + . for the emoji and symbol panel, or Character Map for supported fonts. In Microsoft Word, enter each hexadecimal code (2705) and press Alt + X. There is no universal decimal Alt code for this character; legacy Alt codes depend on the code page.
- Mac
- Open Character Viewer with Control + Command + Space and search for check mark button. With the Unicode Hex Input keyboard enabled, hold Option and enter the UTF-16 units shown above. Standard Option shortcuts do not cover every Unicode symbol.
- Linux
- In compatible GTK applications, press Ctrl + Shift + U, enter 2705, then Enter. Enter each code point separately for sequences. Other desktops or apps may require their character picker.
- iPhone & Android
- Look for check mark button in your emoji keyboard if available, or copy it here and paste. Save frequently used symbols as a text replacement or keyboard shortcut; availability varies by keyboard.
