Frequently asked questions
How does the emoji translator work?
It looks at every word you type and finds the emoji whose official name or keywords match it best, using the Unicode CLDR keyword lists. Everything runs in your browser, so your text never leaves your device.
Can I choose between replacing words and adding emojis?
Yes. “Add emojis” keeps your words and puts a matching emoji after each one, which is great for captions. “Replace words” swaps the words for emojis to turn a sentence into an emoji puzzle.
Why did a word not get an emoji?
Only words that match an emoji name or keyword are translated. Try a simpler or singular form – “dogs” becomes “dog” automatically, but slang and names usually have no emoji.
