What to know
- Each system draws them differently. Unicode defines the character, while platform fonts supply the artwork. The same emoji can look different on a phone and a laptop. This gallery uses your system font.
- Screen readers announce their names. Emoji names such as “grinning face with big eyes” may be read aloud by assistive technology. Use them sparingly: several consecutive emojis can create a lengthy spoken sequence.
- The dataset follows Unicode. Unicode includes base emojis, skin-tone variants, and ZWJ sequences such as families, couples, and professions. This gallery shows base entries and offers supported variants when selected.
- They help shape your identity, too. A consistent emoji can become recognizable in email subjects or headings, or identify a website as a favicon. For drawn icons, explore the SVG favicon gallery and the guide to create a favicon from scratch (Spanish).

Frequently asked questions
Why does it look different on each device?
Unicode defines the character; the operating system and font determine its appearance. This gallery uses your system font. Its appearance can change in the destination application or on another device.
What is Unicode, and how many emojis are there?
Unicode assigns characters and emoji sequences standardized codes. This gallery uses the pinned Emoji 17 dataset, with English labels and search; supported variants appear when selected.
Can I use an emoji as a favicon?
Yes. “Use as favicon” generates the <link> with the emoji embedded as an SVG data URI. Paste it into the <head>
without uploading files. This tab previews it for you.
How do skin tones work?
Unicode defines five skin-tone modifiers for supported people and gesture emojis. Choose a tone in the action bar to apply it when copying or downloading. The unmodified variant is the default.
Choose, customize, and test your favicon
Browse the gallery or create an emoji or monogram icon. Copy the generated link tag into the head of your HTML page. Test the result on your actual website: browser caches can delay favicon updates. Domain lookup contacts external services; those services may return cached icons or fallback images.
Will every emoji look the same?
No. Emoji glyphs depend on the operating system and installed fonts. A PNG captures this device’s rendering; an SVG that contains text can still vary on another device.
