Good to know ๐
Can I paste an emoji to find out its name?
Yes. Paste any emoji into the search box to see what it's called.
Frequently asked questionsโ
Tap the โ at the top right of any person or hand emoji and five skin tones open up. Tapping the middle of the tile copies the default shade, so use the โ when you want a specific tone.
Search for the feeling rather than the label. Words like crying, sparkle or heart pull up matches even when the official name is something else.
Every platform draws its own artwork, so one emoji looks one way on an iPhone and another on Android or Windows. You copy the same character, and the other person sees their own device's drawing of it.
