Woman Walking: Facing Right Emoji 🚶‍♀️‍➡️

What 🚶‍♀️‍➡️ means

A woman strolling steadily — facing right. The 🚶‍♀️‍➡️ Woman 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.

How it looks across platforms

Seeing a blank box instead of the emoji somewhere? Here's why that happens. Curious why the designs above don't match to begin with? Here's why that happens too.
