How to use the Emoji Copy & Paste
- Type what you’re looking for — names and keywords both work (“lol”, “money”, “thumbs up”) — or browse a group.
- Pick a skin tone; it applies to every emoji that supports one.
- Click an emoji to copy it and add it to the collection bar. Click more to build a string, then Copy all.
- Use the detail panel for the code point, HTML entity, CSS
content, JavaScript escape, shortcode or an SVG favicon.
Using emoji on websites
Emoji are ordinary Unicode characters, so you can paste them straight into HTML, Webflow text fields and CMS content. In code it’s often safer to use an escape, which this picker gives you for every emoji:
| Where | Example for 🚀 |
|---|---|
| HTML entity | 🚀 |
CSS content | content: "\1F680"; |
| JavaScript | "\u{1F680}" |
| Shortcode (Slack, GitHub) | :rocket: |
Emoji favicon in one line
Modern browsers accept an SVG favicon, and an SVG can contain an emoji. The picker builds the tag for you — perfect for prototypes, side projects and staging sites:
<link rel="icon" href="data:image/svg+xml,<svg xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2000/svg' viewBox='0 0 100 100'><text y='.9em' font-size='90'>🚀</text></svg>">For a production favicon with PNG fallbacks use the Favicon Generator.
Why emoji look different everywhere
Each platform (Apple, Google, Microsoft, Samsung) draws its own emoji, and older systems may not know newer ones — they show a box or two separate emoji instead. Skin tones and combined emoji like 👩💻 are sequences of several code points joined with a zero-width joiner; take a look inside with the Unicode Character Inspector.
Emoji and accessibility
Screen readers announce emoji by name (“rocket”). Use them to add tone, not to replace words, avoid long emoji strings, and put them at the end of a sentence rather than in the middle. On social media, combine them with formatted text from the Bold Text Generator.
Tools that pair well with the Emoji Copy & Paste
- Text Symbols & Special Characters — Check marks, arrows, stars, bullets, math and currency signs, superscripts, box drawing, invisible spaces and ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ text faces — click to copy, with the HTML entity, CSS and Unicode for each.
- ASCII Art Generator — Type a word and see it in 20 ASCII art fonts at once — Standard, Slant, ANSI Shadow, Doom and more.
- HTML Entity Encoder — Escape < > & " so text is safe to show in HTML, convert accents and symbols to named or numeric entities, or decode entity-filled HTML back to plain text.
