# Emoji and emoticons
|
|
|

{!emoji-and-emoticons-intro.md!}
|
|
|
|
!!! tip ""
|
|
|
|
You can also quickly respond to a message by using [emoji reactions](/help/emoji-reactions).
|
|
|
|
## Use an emoji in your message
|
|
|
|
{start_tabs}
|
|
|
|
{tab|via-compose-box-buttons}
|
|
|
|
{!start-composing.md!}
|
|
|
|
1. Click the **smiley face** (<i class="zulip-icon zulip-icon-smile-bigger"></i>)
|
|
icon at the bottom of the compose box.
|
|
|
|
1. Select an emoji. You can type to search, use the arrow keys, or click on
|
|
an emoji with your mouse.
|
|
|
|
{tab|via-markdown}
|
|
|
|
{!start-composing.md!}
|
|
|
|
1. Type `:`, followed by a few letters from the emoji name, to see autocomplete
|
|
suggestions. The letters don't have to be at the beginning of the emoji name.
|
|
For example, `:app` will match both `:apple:` and `:pineapple:`.
|
|
|
|
1. Type the full emoji name followed by `:`, or select an emoji from the list of
|
|
suggestions.
|
|
|
|
{tab|via-paste}
|
|
|
|
{!start-composing.md!}
|
|
|
|
1. Paste an emoji copied from outside of Zulip directly into the compose box.
|
|
|
|
{end_tabs}
|
|
|
|
!!! tip ""
|
|
|
|
You can hover over an emoji in the emoji picker, a message, or an [emoji
|
|
reaction](/help/emoji-reactions) to learn its name.
|
|
|
|
### Use an emoticon
|
|
|
|
You can configure Zulip to convert emoticons into emoji, so that, e.g., `:)`
|
|
will be displayed as
|
|
<img
|
|
src="/static/generated/emoji/images-google-64/1f642.png"
|
|
alt="smile"
|
|
class="emoji-small"
|
|
/>
|
|
.
|
|
|
|
{start_tabs}
|
|
|
|
{settings_tab|preferences}
|
|
|
|
1. Under **Emoji settings**, select **Convert emoticons before sending**.
|
|
|
|
{end_tabs}
|
|
|
|
The list of supported emoticons is available
|
|
[here](/help/configure-emoticon-translations).
|
|
|
|
## Examples

{!emoji-and-emoticons-examples.md!}
|
|
|
|
## Change your emoji set
|
|
|
|
Your emoji set determines how you see emoji. It has no effect on the emoji
|
|
you send. Zulip emoji are compatible with screen readers and other accessibility tools.
|
|
|
|
{start_tabs}
|
|
|
|
{settings_tab|preferences}
|
|
|
|
1. Under **Emoji**, select **Google**,
|
|
**Twitter**, **Plain text**, or **Google blobs** for the emoji theme.
|
|
|
|
{end_tabs}
|
|
|
|
!!! warn ""
|
|
|
|
**Google blobs** is an old style of Google emoji that has not been maintained
|
|
by Google since 2017, when they switched to a more modern style. Zulip allows
|
|
you to still use blob emoji, but any new emoji that have been released since
|
|
2017 will be displayed in the modern **Google** style.
