Copy & Paste Symbols: The Ultimate Guide to Unicode Symbols

Unicode contains over 140,000 characters β€” and many of them are beautiful symbols you can copy and paste anywhere. Here's everything you need to know about copy-paste symbols.

What Are Unicode Symbols?

Unicode is the universal character encoding standard. It includes not just letters and numbers, but thousands of special symbols: hearts (β™‘ ❀ β™₯), arrows (β†’ ← ↑ ↓ β‡’), stars (β˜… β˜† ✦ ✧), math (∞ β‰  ≀ Ο€), music (β™ͺ β™« β™©), currency (€ Β£ Β₯ β‚Ώ), and much more.

Because these are standard Unicode characters β€” not images β€” they work in any text field on any device without any special app.
