Emojis
An emoji is not a picture you paste — it is a character code, the same way the letter A is a character code. When you copy 😀 you are copying a number that every device agrees means “grinning face”, and the device you paste it into draws that number with whatever emoji font it ships. That is why the same message can look round and glossy on one phone and flat and simple on another, and it is also why emoji survive a copy-paste that would break an image. The categories on this page follow the official Unicode grouping, so if you know roughly what you are looking for you will find it in the same place you would on your keyboard — with the difference that search here matches the emoji's real name, not your phone's guesswork.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need to install anything to use these emoji?
No. Every emoji is a standard Unicode character that your device already knows how to draw. Copying one is the same as copying a letter.
Why does an emoji look different after I paste it?
Because the receiving device draws it with its own emoji font. Apple, Google, Samsung and Microsoft each design their own set, so the character is identical while the artwork is not.
Why do some emoji show as a box or a question mark?
That device's emoji font is older than the emoji you pasted. Newer additions take a few years to reach every phone, so stick to well-established emoji when the audience is wide.
Do emoji count toward bio character limits?
Yes, and some count as two characters because they are built from more than one code point. Flags and family emoji are the usual culprits.
Are skin tone variants included?
The library lists the base emoji rather than every tone variant, which keeps the list browsable. Tone modifiers can be added on your device after pasting.
