Emoji (/ɪˈmoʊdʒi/; singular emoji, plural emoji or emojis; from the Japanese 絵文字えもじ, pronounced [emodʑi]) are ideograms and smileys used in electronic messages and web pages. Emoji are used much like emoticons and exist in various genres, including facial expressions, common objects, places and types of weather, and animals. Originally meaning pictograph, the word emoji comes from Japanese e (絵, "picture") + moji (文字, "character"). Either by coincidence or as a cross-language play on words, the term "emoji" also bears resemblance to the English words emotion and emoticon.
Originating on Japanese mobile phones in the late 1990s, emoji have become increasingly popular worldwide since their international inclusion in Apple's iPhone in 2011, which was followed by similar adoption in Android and other mobile operating systems. In 2015, Oxford Dictionaries named an emoji the Word of the Year.
Love the variety, but the search is quite cluttered. Very hard to find what you're looking for without some basic sorting.
But worst of all, there's no way to copy the emoji from the drop-down menu. It just opens the 3rd party site. Which also doesn't allow you to copy from its search results, only the specific emoji page that you have to open aswell. Might aswell just use the website.
Shame. Too much clicking and an awful implementation make this rich selection of text emojis barely useable.
Hope the developer can offer some update. I'd love to give it 5 stars.
