Frequently asked questions

Why does the copied emoji look different from the list?

This is because the design of emojis is provided by the OS, browser, apps, and fonts. Even if the code is the same, the font and color may be different.

Are my searches and favorites sent to the server?

Not sent. Search, copy, and combine within your browser, and save your favorites and history only in the browser you're using.
