⏪️ fast reverse button Emoji — Meaning, Copy & Paste

What Does the fast reverse button Emoji ⏪️ Mean?

Two left-pointing triangles side by side — the fast-rewind button. Available since Unicode 6.0 (2010), the fast reverse button emoji represents fast-rewinding, going back quickly, and reversing through time. People use it for 'rewinding to my younger self ⏪,' 'taking it back ⏪,' and 'going back in time ⏪' nostalgic content.

It pairs naturally with ⏩ for forward-and-back narratives. Content creators use it for 'skip back' video direction. It's also used for 'undoing' major decisions in dramatic posts.

Whether you're literally rewinding a video, longing for the past, or just wishing you could undo a choice, this double-triangle takes you back faster than the single arrow. 'Take me back to 2019,' 'rewind to my 20s,' and 'when was the last good year' nostalgia content all use it. It's a generational favorite among Millennials and older Gen Z looking back fondly online.

The double-triangle design is instantly recognizable from VCRs, DVD players, and modern streaming apps. It's been part of media controls since the analog cassette era many decades ago now.
