The tone is usually mild and a bit childish. It fits complaining, light protest or acting hurt for attention, more than real anger. It is stronger than π but much softer than π or π‘. Next to its close relative πββοΈ (man frowning), the pouting version reads as more irritated and sulky, while the frowning one reads as sad or disappointed. People often use it in a teasing way, for example when a friend cancels plans or forgets to reply. The man version is often chosen to match the sender, but anyone can use it, and the skin tone or gender does not change the meaning.
It usually means mock annoyance, like "hmph" or "that's not fair." It rarely signals a serious fight.
It is not a romantic signal on its own. It most likely means the person is playfully sulking, maybe because you were late to reply or left them out.
It often means "I want attention" or "you hurt my feelings a little." A warm reply or a small apology usually fixes it.

It sits between the two but leans toward annoyed. It shows sulking or mild irritation rather than deep sadness or real rage.
πββοΈ is pouting, so it reads as sulky or upset with someone. πββοΈ is frowning, so it reads more as disappointed or down.
If it is playful, tease back or offer a small fix like "ok ok, next time I'll invite you." If it seems real, ask what is wrong.
