Wondering what the Folded Hands emoji means on Snapchat, X or in a text message?
The 🙏 emoji has different meanings depending on the context. It can be used to represent a sincere prayer, expressing wishes or hopes for someone.

What does 🙏 mean from a girl or a boy?
From a girl: "Please" or "thank you" most of the time. Also prayer or hope, depending on the person.
From a boy: Same. Commonly used as a plain thank-you in group chats, and sometimes as a high five.
Frequently claimed to be a high five. It is not — Unicode defines it as folded hands, though plenty of people use it that way anyway.
