You saw a symbol and you want to know what it means: a light on the dashboard, a mark on a clothing label, an icon on a device or a carving on an old building. Upload a photo and this symbol identifier tells you what it is called, what it means and where it is used.
Identify a symbol from an image
Take a close photo or a screenshot of the symbol, crop it so the symbol fills most of the frame, and send. You get its name, a one-line meaning, where you usually see it, and a short background.
Dashboard lights, care labels and signs
For warning lights and safety signs the answer adds what to do next. For laundry care labels it explains each symbol: washing temperature, drying, ironing and bleach.
Old, cultural and religious symbols
Runes, ancient marks, heraldry and religious symbols are explained neutrally, with where they come from and how they are used today.
When the answer is not sure
Every answer says how sure it is. Faded, tiny or unusual symbols may get two or three possible matches with what tells them apart. A sharper, closer photo usually settles it.
