Google Sheets does not have a direct feature to insert special characters, including the infinity symbol (∞), through its menu options like Google Docs does. However, you can still add an infinity symbol to your Google Sheets by using Google Docs.
Follow the steps below to insert an infinity symbol in Google Sheets using Google Docs.
Go to Google Docs. Open a new document or use an existing one. Click on "Insert" in the top menu, then select "Special characters" from the dropdown menu.
In the special characters window, type "infinity" in the search bar and click on the infinity symbol that appears.
After inserting the infinity symbol into your Google Docs document, highlight it with your mouse. Right-click and select "Copy."
Open Google Sheets in a new tab or window. Navigate to the sheet where you want to insert the infinity symbol. Click on the cell where you wish to paste it. Right-click on the selected cell and choose "Paste," or press Ctrl+V (Cmd+V on Mac) to paste the infinity symbol.
This is how the infinity symbol should look like in Google Sheets.
