EmojiYou do not need a website to type emoji, though you can copy from ours. Every phone and computer has a built-in way.
Windows
Press the Windows key and the full stop (Windows + .) or the semicolon (Windows + ;). A panel opens. Pick an emoji or type a word to search.
Mac
Press Control, Command and Space together. The emoji viewer opens. Search or browse, then click.
Android
Open any text box so the keyboard appears. Tap the smiley icon on the keyboard (on Gboard, next to the space bar). Tap the emoji you want.
iPhone
Add the emoji keyboard once: Settings, General, Keyboard, Keyboards, Add New Keyboard, Emoji. After that, tap the smiley or globe key on the keyboard.
If you cannot find it
- Update your phone or computer; older systems lack newer emoji.
- Check that your keyboard app includes emoji.
- Copy and paste from our emoji list as a quick option: tap an emoji and it is copied.
