location pin
Digital place marker
A location pin is the teardrop-shaped marker used on digital maps to indicate a specific place.
The icon—narrow at the bottom, rounded at top—suggests something stuck into a map surface.
Location pins mark destinations, saved places, or search results: Drop a pin where you want to meet.
The symbol has become shorthand for "place" in app interfaces and signage.
