checkmarks

Signs of completion

Checkmarks are marks resembling a V or tick (✓) used to indicate completion, approval, or selection.

They appear on to-do lists, ballots, and forms to show that something has been done, chosen, or verified: I went through the checklist putting checkmarks next to each item.

In digital interfaces, checkmarks confirm successful actions or selected options.
