About people emojis
People emojis represent who we are and what we do โ every age, role, profession and family combination, plus the figures and silhouettes used to stand in for a person in a message. This page brings them all together in one scrollable grid.
From workers ๐ฉโ๐ป and superheroes ๐ฆธ to couples ๐, families ๐จโ๐ฉโ๐ง and people raising a hand ๐, each one copies with a single tap. Many people emojis also support skin-tone modifiers on supported keyboards, so you can pick the version that fits.
Frequently asked questions
How do I change the skin tone of a people emoji?
On most phone keyboards you long-press a person emoji to choose from five skin-tone modifiers. The copy-paste versions here use the default yellow, which you can recolor in any keyboard that supports tone selection.
What are the family emojis?
Family emojis combine adults and children into one glyph, such as ๐จโ๐ฉโ๐ง or ๐ฉโ๐ฉโ๐ฆ. They are built from joined characters, so a few may not display on older devices.
How do I copy a people emoji?
Click or tap any figure in the grid above and it is copied instantly, ready to paste into chats, captions, profiles and documents.
Why do some people emojis show as boxes?
Combined emojis like multi-person families rely on newer Unicode support. If a device is out of date it may show a box or split the emoji into separate parts.
