Frequently Asked Questions About Emojis
Do these emojis work on all platforms?
Yes! All emojis in our library are standard Unicode characters that work across Instagram, Twitter, Facebook, Discord, TikTok, WhatsApp, Snapchat, LinkedIn, Reddit, and virtually every platform and device. What you see here is exactly how they'll appear when you paste them. Some very new emojis may not display on older devices, but the vast majority are universally supported.
How do I copy and paste emojis?
Simply click any emoji in our library and it's automatically copied to your clipboard. Then go to Instagram, Twitter, or any other platform and paste (Ctrl+V or Cmd+V) wherever you want to use it. The green checkmark confirms successful copying. No need to manually select and copy - we've made it one-click simple!
Can I save my favorite emojis?
Yes! Hover over any emoji and click the heart icon that appears to add it to your favorites. Your favorites are saved in your browser's local storage, so they'll be there next time you visit (on the same device and browser). You can also see your recently used emojis for quick access to emojis you use frequently.
What's the difference between emojis and symbols?
Emojis are colorful pictographs (๐๐๐) while symbols are typically simpler characters (โโ โฅ). Both are Unicode characters. Emojis tend to be more expressive and attention-grabbing, perfect for social media. Symbols are often used for bullets, decorations, or to create text art. Our library includes both categories - browse the Symbols & Signs section for arrows, stars, shapes, and special characters.
Do emojis help with social media engagement?
Research shows posts with emojis get 48% more engagement than posts without them. Emojis make content more scannable, convey emotion quickly, and break up text visually. However, quality matters more than quantity - use 2-4 relevant emojis that enhance your message rather than overwhelming it. Professional brands should use emojis sparingly and strategically, while lifestyle and entertainment accounts can be more liberal with emoji usage.
Are there emoji keyboard shortcuts?
Yes! On Windows 10/11, press Windows key + . (period) or Windows key + ; (semicolon) to open the emoji picker. On Mac, press Command + Control + Space to open the emoji viewer. On mobile devices, the emoji keyboard is usually accessible via a smiley face icon on your keyboard. However, our web-based library offers more comprehensive browsing by category and faster access to specific emojis than built-in keyboard shortcuts.
Can I use emojis in my business communications?
It depends on your industry and audience. B2C brands (especially lifestyle, food, fashion, entertainment) can freely use emojis in social media, email subject lines, and marketing materials. B2B companies should be more conservative - occasional emojis in social media are fine, but avoid them in formal documents or client communications. When in doubt, match your competitor's emoji usage and test different approaches to see what resonates with your specific audience.
Why do some emojis look different on different devices?
While the Unicode standard defines what each emoji represents, each operating system (Apple, Google, Microsoft, Samsung) designs their own visual versions. So ๐ might look slightly different on iPhone vs Android vs Windows. The meaning stays the same, just the art style varies. This is normal and expected - your emoji will always display correctly, just with platform-specific styling. Our library shows the default web browser version.
