What the Emoji Picker does

The Emoji Picker is a fast way to find and copy emoji without hunting through your operating system's hidden character menu. It displays a large library of emoji organised into categories such as smileys, people, animals, food, travel, activities, objects, symbols and flags, and lets you copy any one to your clipboard with a single click.

It is useful whenever you want an emoji somewhere that does not have a built-in picker, for example a desktop web app, a code editor, a spreadsheet, a document, or a social media caption. Because the chosen emoji is copied as a standard Unicode character, it will display correctly in any app that supports emoji on the recipient's device.

Hovering over any emoji shows its full name along with its Unicode code point and a shortcode-style label, which is handy if you need to reference an emoji precisely or look it up elsewhere.

How to use it

To browse, choose a category tab and scroll through the grid of emoji. To search, type a word into the search box at the top, such as "heart", "laugh" or "cat". The picker matches against each emoji's name and a set of related keywords, so you can find an emoji even if you do not know its exact name.

Click any emoji to copy it straight to your clipboard. A small confirmation appears so you know the copy worked, and you can then paste the emoji wherever you need it. Each emoji you copy is added to a Recently Used row at the top, making it quick to reuse your favourites.

Privacy and notes

The picker runs completely in your browser. Searching, browsing and copying are all handled on your own device, and nothing you click is sent to a server. Your Recently Used emoji are saved in your browser's local storage so they are still there next time you visit, and you can clear them at any time by clearing your browser data.

How an emoji finally looks depends on the device or app that displays it, because each platform draws its own version of the same Unicode character. The picker copies the standard character, so the emoji will render with the native style of whatever device opens your message or document.
