Have you ever observed your Snapchat Map Bitmoji and that of your friends and noticed that the Bitmoji is performing specific actions like holding a phone or driving a car?

Every time you open Snap Map, it updates your location, and when you don’t open the app for a few hours, your Actionmoji disappears from the map.

On the Snapchat map, you and your friends are represented by an Actionmoji, a redesigned version of your Snapchat Bitmoji created to represent a specific user action.

In this article, you’ll know the different Snapchat Bitmoji meanings. You’ll also learn about the actionmoji which shows up on the Snapchat Map.

The Meaning Of Snapchat Map Actionmoji?

Sometimes, you see that your Actionmoji or that of your friend changes and shows up driving cars and even on the beach.

Currently, there are many different Actionmoji available on Snapchat that depict different actions. The following are some Snapchat Bitmoji and their meanings:

1. Birthday Hat And Balloon Bitmoji

2. Umbrella Above Bitmoji

If your Bitmoji is under an umbrella, it means it is raining, or your friends are in a location where it’s raining.

Using your phone’s geographical position, Snapchat can determine your location, and automatically update your Bitmoji to suit the weather.

3. Z’s Above The Bitmoji

When you notice that your friend’s Bitmoji has the letters ZZZ, it implies that your friend is asleep.

If you plan to sleep while leaving the Snapchat app running, you could set your Bitmoji to show that you are sleeping to avoid any disturbances.

If someone on your Snap Map has a green battery icon over their head, that means their phone battery is at 100% or full.

Snapchat can determine if there is any sporting activity happening around you. If Snapchat detects that you are attending a sporting event, it will update your Bitmoji to show you enjoying yourself at the game.
