White Exclamation Mark Emoji ❕

What ❕ means

A ❗Red Exclamation Mark designed in white. The ❕ White Exclamation Mark emoji offers the same emotion as the red symbol, but with lesser intensity and volume. Much like the ❔ White Question Mark, this emoji too tends to 'blend in'.

How and when to use it

If you're exclaiming something out of excitement or any other emotion, but not to the extent that it would kill if there was no reaction to the expression, you could use ❕. Like, "Please check out this page ❕".
❕ is more of a peace-maker. It does highlight an emotion but not necessarily in a cut-throat manner. For example, "I was so impressed ❕" or "Aww. You didn't have to do that ❕".
If you're trying to induce excitement into a conversation with an acquaintance, ❕ would be the perfect emoji (not too much emotion nor too little). For instance, "Heyy. I will surely spread the word ❕".
Generally, ❕ could be used for decorative or "aesthetic" purposes too - like creating borders, parallel lines, etc.
