What Does the ๐Ÿซฑ rightwards hand Emoji Mean?

A single hand extended toward the right with the palm turned upward, as though offering something or reaching across to meet another hand. On its own it reads as an invitation rather than a statement. It was drawn to be one half of a pair, which is unusual in the emoji set and explains why it looks slightly incomplete when sent by itself.

About rightwards hand Emoji

Usage: It appears in messages about handing something over, making an introduction, or offering help. Its more interesting use is in combination: pairing it with the matching leftwards hand lets people build a handshake from two different skin tones, which the single handshake character cannot represent. That trick is the main reason it gets deliberately sought out.

Added in Unicode 14.0 in 2021 as part of a set of directional hands designed specifically so that two could be combined. The goal was a handshake where each hand could carry its own skin tone, something the existing single handshake emoji had never been able to show.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the rightwards hand emoji for?

Offering, handing over or reaching toward someone. It was also designed to combine with the leftwards hand so a handshake can show two different skin tones.

How do I make a two-tone handshake?

Pair the rightwards hand with the leftwards hand, each with its own skin tone modifier. Supporting devices render the pair as a single handshake image.

Why does ๐Ÿซฑ look unfinished on its own?

Because it was drawn as one half of a pair. The design assumes a second hand meeting it, which is why a single hand reads as mid-gesture.
