Searching “heart” surfaces every heart color
Typing heart narrows the grid to every curated heart emoji — from ❤️ to 💔 — in one search, ready to click and copy.
Emoji picker: copy and paste emoji
This emoji picker searches 285 curated emoji by word or by category; click one to copy it and paste it into any caption, comment or bio. Emoji are ordinary Unicode characters, so they work on every network, but each counts toward the text limit: on X, every emoji counts as 2 of the 280 characters.
Search and copy emoji
Click any emoji to copy it. Nothing is uploaded — copying happens entirely in your browser.
How do emoji count on X, Threads and TikTok?
Emoji are ordinary Unicode characters, so every network accepts them, but they count toward the text limit like any letter. On X they count double. Check a draft with the X character counter before you post.
| Platform | Text limit | How emoji count |
|---|---|---|
| X | 280 characters | Every emoji counts as 2 characters |
| Threads | 500 characters | Each emoji counts toward the post text |
| TikTok | 2,200 characters (video caption) | Each emoji counts toward the caption |
Pickers with each network’s own field limits and tips: Instagram, Facebook Pages, LinkedIn, Pinterest, YouTube, Bluesky, Telegram.
How do you use the emoji picker?
- Search or browse by category. Type a word like "fire" or "heart" in the search box, or click a category tab such as Smileys or Hearts to browse instead.
- Click an emoji to copy it. Click any emoji in the grid and it is copied to your clipboard immediately — no long-press, right-click or extension needed.
- Paste it into your caption. Paste with Ctrl+V or Cmd+V wherever you are writing — a caption, a comment, a bio or a direct message.
- Switch categories for more options. Use the 7 category tabs — Smileys, Gestures, Hearts, Nature, Food, Objects and Symbols — to browse beyond a single search term.
- Reuse the same picker everywhere. The picker works identically for every platform, since Unicode emoji are not specific to any one network or app.
What does it look like in practice?
Browsing the Food category
The Food category tab surfaces dozens of curated food and drink emoji, from 🍕 to 🍩, all reachable in one click without typing anything.
How do you schedule posts with emoji?
Paste the emoji into the post in SkedCast; the composer counts each network’s characters the way that network does, including X’s double count for emoji, and shows a preview before the post is scheduled. See bulk scheduling to import a month of posts.
Emoji picker FAQ
- How do emoji count toward X’s character limit?
- Every emoji counts as 2 of the 280 characters, however complex it is, per X’s own counting rules.
- Can I use emoji in TikTok and Threads captions?
- Yes. Emoji are ordinary text, so they count toward the caption limit like any letter: 500 characters on Threads and 2,200 on a TikTok video caption.
- Does the emoji picker work for every social platform?
- Yes. Every major platform accepts standard Unicode emoji in captions, comments and bios, so the same picker works everywhere without any platform-specific version.
- Does the picker include every Unicode emoji?
- No — it is a curated set of 285 commonly used emoji organized into 7 categories, not the full Unicode emoji list, which runs to well over a thousand characters.
- Does clicking an emoji upload or send anything?
- No. Copying happens entirely in your browser using the clipboard API — nothing is uploaded, saved, or sent to a server.
- Can I search for an emoji by name?
- Yes. Type a word like “laugh”, “fire” or “thumbs up” into the search box and the grid narrows to matching emoji instantly.
- Why does an emoji look different on different apps?
- Unicode defines the character, not its artwork — each platform draws its own visual style for the same emoji, which is why the same character can look slightly different from one app to another.
- What if my browser blocks the copy?
- Some browsers require a permission or a secure connection for clipboard access. If copying does not work, the emoji character is still visible and selectable directly from the grid.
- Is there a limit to how many emoji I can copy?
- No. Click as many as you need, one at a time — each click copies just that one emoji, replacing whatever was on your clipboard before it.
