About the Red Heart Emoji
The red heart emoji is the classic symbol of love. People use it to say “I love you”, to show thanks and to react to a message, a photo or a post.
It is written with two Unicode code points: U+2764 (heavy black heart) followed by U+FE0F, the variation selector that asks for the colorful emoji style. Without U+FE0F some systems show a plain black text heart instead of the red one. When you press Copy emoji on this page, both parts are copied.
