Person Walking: Facing Right Emoji 🚶‍➡️

What 🚶‍➡️ means

A person strolling steadily — facing right. The 🚶‍➡️ Person Walking Facing Right emoji arrived in Emoji 15.1 (September 2023) as part of the big directionality update: 108 of that release's emojis exist so people on our keyboards can finally move in both directions.

It mirrors the classic left-facing version, which matters more than it sounds — point an emoji toward the thing you're describing and a sentence suddenly has motion and intent.

How and when to use it

• Great for step-counting, commuting on foot, and evening walk content: "10k steps before lunch 🚶‍➡️ new record."
• Point it at what comes next in your sentence — 🚶‍➡️🏁, 🚶‍➡️🏠, 🚶‍➡️✈️ — direction adds meaning.
• Combine with its left-facing twin for meet-in-the-middle moments and race commentary.
