What ๐Ÿ˜ฒ means

The tone is mostly neutral and can go either way: amazed by good news or stunned by bad news. It is stronger than ๐Ÿ˜ฎ and ๐Ÿ˜ฏ, which are milder "oh" faces, but it stops short of the fear in ๐Ÿ˜ฑ. A common use is reacting to a price, as in "โ‚น5,000 for a T-shirt ๐Ÿ˜ฒ". It also works as playful fake shock when a friend admits something small.

In texting

It usually means "I did not expect that". Read the rest of the message to tell if the surprise is happy, worried or just joking.
