Apple also omitted the pinched fingers from its South Korean website for the iPhone Air in 2025, but they remain visible on its U.S. website.

In South Korea, a pinched-fingers gesture or emoji has reportedly been interpreted by some as a symbol used to mock the size of men’s genitals.

Apple has not commented on this matter.
