Confused face Emoji

Smileys

A yellow face with a slight frown, furrowed eyebrows, and closed, straight-line eyes. It conveys a sense of mild perplexity, uncertainty, or being caught off guard.

Usage Context

Used when someone is unsure how to react, puzzled by a confusing message, or feeling slightly underwhelmed. It is a step down in intensity from 🤔 and often serves as a digital shrug when a situation is just plain strange.

History

Added to the Unicode standard in 2012 as part of the expansion of facial expressions meant to bridge the gap between simple text-based emoticons like :/ and the more expressive pictographs used in early mobile messaging apps.
