Detective Emoji Meaning
🧑
Previously displayed with a gendered appearance, now shown as gender neutral on most platforms.
An undercover investigator, wearing a hat, and sometimes using a magnifying glass to closely inspect evidence. This emoji did not originally recommend emoji modifiers, but a proposal was created to address this.
