A plain, circular white circle with no specific features.
There are different emoji meanings for white circle in different cultures:
- Western culture
- Often used literally to represent a white circle, or metaphorically for 'empty' or 'nothing' within a larger context. Could also signify completion or a 'check' when used in a list or task context, though less commonly than other symbols.
- East Asian culture
- Similar to Western culture, it can represent emptiness or purity. In some visual contexts, it might be part of a larger design or represent a 'hole' or 'void.' In Japanese art, it might be related to the concept of 'ensō' (a circle drawn in one or two uninhibited brushstrokes to express a moment when the mind is free to let the body create).
- Technical/UI context
- Frequently used as a radio button, a placeholder, a bullet point, or an unselected state in user interfaces.
