Backhand Index Pointing Up 👆
Copy & Meaning

Backhand index finger pointing up — for directing attention upward or emphasizing something above. "What they said 👆" (agreeing with a previous comment) or drawing attention to content above: "All of this is explained better up there 👆". In social media conversations it's commonly used to endorse a previous message — the digital equivalent of pointing at someone and saying "what they said".

The backhand orientation distinguishes it from ☝. One of the more practically useful directional emoji for navigating conversations and threads.
