Hand with Index and Middle Fingers Crossed 🤞
🤞 (U+1F91E) is a standard Unicode character that you can copy and paste anywhere text is accepted. This page provides a concise reference with safe tips, internal links, and practical guidance so you can use it reliably across apps and platforms.
What it is and where it’s used: Hand with Index and Middle Fingers Crossed is part of the Symbols family (block: Supplemental Symbols and Pictographs). If you need styled or decorative alternatives, try our Fancy Text tool to generate compatible text that works in most modern interfaces.
History & usage: HAND WITH INDEX AND MIDDLE FINGERS CROSSED depicts an emoji used to express hope, support, or a light gesture in messages and interfaces. In text, it conveys ideas, emotions, or objects and helps show a positive wish for a outcome. It can signal luck or a hopeful moment when asking for approval or success. In UI, a cross symbol often denotes close or delete in context, or marks an incorrect state. The meaning may shift with platform and font, so colors and details vary. For accessibility, ensure surrounding text conveys the intended sense and that the emoji alone does not replace essential information. Use it thoughtfully in messaging and interfaces to reduce ambiguity and support user intent across platforms.
Copy and input: the quickest method is to copy the character here. You can also insert it by its codepoint U+1F91E in many development tools or editors. Some operating systems provide a character viewer or input palette that lets you search by name or code and insert the glyph into documents.
Display and fallback: if you see an empty box (tofu) or a placeholder rectangle, the active font might not include this codepoint. Switching to a font with broader Unicode coverage or using a fallback font usually fixes the issue. On the web, ensure the page’s font stack includes a general‑purpose fallback.
