The ▻ (White Right-Pointing Pointer) symbol is an unfilled geometric triangle often used in digital interfaces to represent a collapsed menu or an expandable accordion element. Beyond UI design, it frequently serves as a clean, minimalist bullet point in typography and lists. Its hollow design makes it a subtle alternative to the solid "play" button when indicating direction or a next step.
