What does it mean when you can see a little person at the bottom of a Snapchat message?

Like at first it was just peaking but then a few seconds later I could see half of its body? Enlighten me please because I'm kinda new.

So, what does it mean when you can see a little person at the bottom of a Snapchat message?

It's a bitmoji, another app you can use to make an avatar which can be imported into snapchat.
Usually snapchat will have a blue dot or a smiley if someone has their screen open or is in the chat screen, bitmoji just replaces thay

But why could I see half of its body

[Asker]

Because at first it was just peaking

[Wonderer89]

Because they're typing. If they have their screen on it's just peeking. If they pop up and you can see the torso that means the person is looking at your chat screen/typing

Thanks so much! ❤️

Peaking means they're online half the body means they're in the message

The little person at the bottom of a Snapchat message is called a Snapbot. The Snapbot is a small, cartoonish figure that appears at the bottom of all messages sent through the app. It's purpose is to provide users with information about the app and its features.

It means they are online. And if they show half body with a thinking 🤔 pose then they are typing. Your little cartoon is also shown to the person you're texting if you have an avatar.
