The story behind 👉👈
👉 and 👈 are among the original emojis: both were part of the first large emoji set added to Unicode 6.0 in 2010. Since 2015 they also come in five skin tones. The shy finger-tapping gesture comes from anime and manga, where nervous characters press their fingertips together. Because it uses two hand emojis, each one can have its own skin tone.
👉👈 in captions, comments and DMs
On TikTok and Instagram, 👉👈 appears in shy captions, "asking my crush out" videos and cute requests in comments. It is especially popular with 🥺 in soft, playful chats.
Don't get 👉👈 wrong
Because it is made of two emojis, typing them in the wrong order (👈👉) points the fingers away from each other and loses the shy look. Copy it from this page to get the right order.
How 👉👈 looks on different devices
On iPhone, iPad and Mac, 👉 and 👈 are yellow hands with the index finger pointing sideways, which together make the shy gesture. You can pick a skin tone for each hand.
