Heavy Check Mark ✔
Usage snapshot:
- A check mark typically means confirmed, done, or correct in lists and UIs.
History & usage: The HEAVY CHECK MARK depicts a bold check mark used to signal confirmed, done, or correct. In to-do lists and task boards, it marks items as completed and ready for review. In forms, surveys, and checklists, it indicates a selected or verified option in a group. In dashboards and status badges, it communicates that a step is approved or a process has finished. It serves as a simple, universal cue that users recognize as positive progress. Cross‑platform rendering can vary; provide a text label or aria-label for accessibility and ensure assistive tech announces the checked state. Use it sparingly in places where a visual confirmation is needed and pair with other indicators if precision is required.

Compatibility & troubleshooting

Web pages: ensure your CSS font stack includes a general fallback; avoid relying on images for common symbols to preserve accessibility and copyability.
