About this copy and paste symbols

Your keyboard has about a hundred characters on it. Unicode has more than a hundred thousand, and the handful people need most often, a heart, an arrow, a check mark, a degree sign, sit just out of reach behind alt codes nobody remembers. This page puts them in one grid: tap a symbol and it lands on your clipboard, ready to paste into a document, a spreadsheet header, a chat message, or a profile bio. Every symbol here is a real text character rather than an image, so it keeps its meaning when the text is copied onward, searched, or read aloud by a screen reader. The search box matches on the official Unicode name and on the codepoint, which is handy when you know you want U+2764 but not what it looks like.

FAQ

Common questions

Short answers for the questions people usually have before trying a utility like this.

How do I copy a symbol on a phone?

Tap the symbol. It goes straight to your clipboard, and you can paste it wherever you were typing. No long-press or text selection is needed.

Why does a symbol show as an empty box somewhere else?

That device is missing a font that covers the character. The symbol itself is fine and will appear correctly on systems that have the glyph, but for wide compatibility pick one of the plainer symbols in the same group.

Are these emoji or text?

Mostly text. Characters like the heart suit and the arrow are ordinary Unicode symbols that inherit your font. A few, such as the colored hearts and stars, are emoji and will be drawn by your platform in its own style.

Can I use these in a filename or a URL?

In a filename usually yes, in a URL usually not without percent-encoding. Systems that expect plain ASCII may mangle them, so stick to ordinary letters where the text has to survive a legacy system.
