✨ Awesome Emoji Picker ✨ de rugk, Teal Dulcet

This add-on provides you with a modern emoji picker that you can use to find and select emojis (i.e. the emoticons/smileys you know from messengers such as 😃, 😎 or 🤪). You can copy them into your clipboard or insert them into the active page.
It uses up-to-date Emojis and let's you access your Emojis in different styles you know from different devices and applications.


😊 Simple & effective! 😊

You can then use the emojis on almost any web page, including your favourite messenger (such as WhatsApp, Telegram, Threema, Signal, Wire etc.), social media (Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Mastodon etc.) and even e-mails.

It will remember your recently used emojis across sites. Additionally it may often be faster than the emoji picker on the website itself.

It is based on the awesome project emoji-mart. You can test many features on the website there already, without installing it.
This extension only works with Firefox v63 or higher.

It has an effective built-in search, so you can use it as an ”emoji cheat sheet”. Find exactly the emoji you wanted to find with your search term!


🎨 Choose the Emoji style you want! 🎨

The add-on is very customizable and it lets you configure the up-to-date Emojis in different styles that you know from different devices and applications. Here is a list of styles, it supports:

• Apple emojis
• Google emojis
• Twitter emojis (Twemoji)
