How to use the emoji copy and paste tool
Type what you want in the search box — a feeling (happy, love, sad), a thing (fire, flower, money) or a name (red heart, thumbs up) — or browse a category such as Smileys, Animals or Symbols. Tap any emoji and it is copied straight to your clipboard. Then open your chat or post and paste it: Ctrl + V on Windows, ⌘ + V on Mac, or long-press → Paste on a phone. Your recently used emojis are remembered on your device for next time.
Emojis are Unicode — they work everywhere
An emoji is not a picture file; it is a standard Unicode character, just like a letter or number. That is why a copied emoji works in almost every app that accepts text — social media, messaging apps, email, captions, file names and documents. The drawing may look a little different on an Android phone, an iPhone and a Windows PC, because each device has its own emoji style, but the meaning stays the same. Knowing an emoji's name (shown on this page) helps you choose the right one and avoid sending an emoji that carries a meaning you did not intend.
Typing emojis in Nepal — on your phone and PC
Most people in Nepal use emojis on a phone. On Android, open Gboard and tap the smiley icon beside the space bar; on an iPhone, tap the globe/emoji key on the keyboard. This tool is most useful when you want to search an emoji by name, copy several at once, or add emojis on a computer that has no emoji key. On a Windows PC, you can also press Windows + . (period) to open the built-in emoji picker; on a Mac, press Control + Command + Space. Copied emojis paste cleanly into Facebook, Messenger, Viber, WhatsApp, TikTok, Instagram, Gmail and MS Word.

Frequently asked questions
How do I copy and paste an emoji?
Search for the emoji by name or open a category, then tap (or click) it. The emoji is copied to your clipboard instantly. Go to your chat, post or document and paste it — Ctrl+V on Windows, ⌘+V on Mac, or long-press → Paste on a phone.
Will the emoji look the same after I paste it?
Emojis are standard Unicode characters, not images, so the same emoji works in any app that supports text — Messenger, WhatsApp, Viber, TikTok, Facebook, Instagram, Gmail, MS Word and more. The exact drawing can look slightly different on Android, iPhone and Windows, but the meaning is the same everywhere.
What does each emoji mean?
Every emoji here shows its official Unicode name (for example ❤️ is “red heart” and 🙏 is “folded hands”). Hover on a computer or read the label after copying on a phone. Knowing the name helps you pick the right emoji and avoid sending one that means something you didn't intend.
