How to copy emoji from the Common Flags section

Tap any smiley in the list and the symbol goes to your clipboard, ready to paste into a chat, a group name or a post caption. It is a plain Unicode character, not an image: it works the same in Telegram, WhatsApp, Discord and Instagram, weighs nothing and survives forwarding. The Compose button in the header collects several emoji into one line โ€” handy when you need a combination rather than a single symbol.

Questions about Common Flags emoji

How many emoji are in the Common Flags section?
Currently 8. The list follows the Unicode standard and is updated with it, so it holds both long-standing smileys and symbols from the newest releases.
Why do some smileys look different on my device?
The drawing comes from your device font, not from this site: Apple, Google and Samsung each draw emoji their own way. Every symbol page shows how it looks across platforms.
What if I see an empty box instead of a smiley?
The symbol is newer than your system and the font does not know it yet. You can still copy and send it: on a more recent device the emoji will show correctly.
