Frequently Asked Questions
What are text emoticons and kaomoji?
Text emoticons (kaomoji) are faces and expressions built from plain text characters, like the shrug ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ or a happy face (◕‿◕). Because they use Unicode text rather than picture emoji, they paste and display the same way almost everywhere.
How do I copy an emoticon?
Just click any emoticon card and it is copied to your clipboard instantly. A small toast confirms it, and you can paste it into a chat, comment, bio, or tweet. The page also remembers the ones you used most recently.
Do these work on every app and device?
Mostly yes. Kaomoji are standard text characters, so they work in browsers, chat apps, and social media on phones and computers. A few unusual glyphs may render slightly differently depending on the font, but the emoticon stays readable.
Is this tool free and private?
Completely free with no signup. Everything runs in your browser, so nothing you copy is sent to a server, and only your recently used emoticons are stored locally on your device.
