Arrow Up Left Icon

Q: When should I use it instead of a similar icon?

Use it for suggestion rows in a search dropdown whose trailing button copies the text into the query box; northwest headings for wind, travel or a bearing on a map or weather card; and docking a floating widget, toast stack or video to the top left corner. For links that open another site or a new browser tab, use the Arrow Up Right icon. For going back to the previous page or step in a flow, use the Arrow Left icon.

Diagonal arrow pointing up and left with a right-angle head, for northwest moves, back out and corner navigation. Available in 4 styles (outline, solid, duotone and filled) as a React component you install with the shadcn CLI.

Arrow Up Left icon FAQ

What does this icon show?

Diagonal arrow pointing up and left with a right-angle head, for northwest moves, back out and corner navigation. Typical uses: show a northwest direction on a map, move a panel to the top left corner and return to the origin point on a canvas.

When should I use it instead of a similar icon?

Use it for:

Suggestion rows in a search dropdown whose trailing button copies the text into the query box
Northwest headings for wind, travel or a bearing on a map or weather card
Docking a floating widget, toast stack or video to the top left corner

For links that open another site or a new browser tab, use the Arrow Up Right icon. For going back to the previous page or step in a flow, use the Arrow Left icon.

Which styles does it come in?

4 styles: Outline, Solid, Duotone and Filled. Every style is drawn on the same 24 by 24 grid and installs as its own file, so you can switch styles without touching the layout.

How do I install it with the shadcn CLI?

Copy the install command from the panel above, in the style you want, and run it in your project. The shadcn CLI adds the icon as a React component that you import and render like any other. It draws in the current text color, so your text color and size classes style it. Icon installs need a ReUI Ultimate license.

What icons go well with it?

Icons from the same family and the Arrows set: Arrow Back, Arrow Down, Arrow Down Left, Arrow Down Right, Arrow Down Triangle and Arrow Left.

When was it added?

It joined the ReUI icon library on June 30, 2026.
