⬅️ meaning - Left Arrow

Well we all know what left arrow stands for as we’ve used it quite a few times when referring to something that we’ve previously written and we simply want people to check that one out before they read this. Also, we often see this as a caption to pretty much any photo that makes us wonder what is it that they’re pointing out to, and while we often check it out, we must admit that this emoji makes it for a great one to use in a group chat as well. Make sure that you know the meaning of it.
