Frequently Asked Questions
What are emojis?
Emojis are small digital pictographs used to express emotions, ideas, or objects in digital communication. They originated in Japan and have become a universal language for online expression.
How can I use emojis on my device?
Most modern devices have built-in emoji keyboards. On smartphones, you can usually access emojis through your default keyboard. On computers, you can use keyboard shortcuts (Windows: Win + . or Mac: Cmd + Ctrl + Space) or copy and paste them from our website.
Why do emojis look different on different devices?
While emojis are standardized by the Unicode Consortium, each platform (Apple, Google, Microsoft, etc.) creates its own design interpretation. This is why the same emoji might look slightly different across different devices and platforms.
Are new emojis being added?
Yes! The Unicode Consortium regularly reviews and approves new emoji proposals. New emojis are typically released annually, reflecting current trends, cultural diversity, and user needs.
Can I use emojis commercially?
While emojis themselves are free to use in most contexts, their specific designs may be subject to copyright by platform vendors. For commercial use, it's best to check the specific platform's guidelines or use open-source emoji designs.
