Emoji: Every emoji, a few letters away

About

An emoji picker in the command palette. Search Emoji opens a grid of every emoji, grouped as Unicode groups them, with the ones you use most at the top. Type to narrow it (“party”, “thumbs up”, “flag japan”), move with the arrow keys, and press Return to paste the emoji where you were typing. ⌘K copies it instead. The panel keeps your frequent ones a click from the clipboard.

What's new

    • Pick a skin tone in Settings, and hands and people paste in it.
    • Everyday words find their emoji: happy, lol, love, yes, thanks, party, fire and more.
    • Accents and apostrophes no longer get in the way: "pinata" finds 🪅, "cote" finds Côte d’Ivoire, "oclock" finds the clocks.
    • Paste an emoji into the search to find it and its name.
    • At the palette's root, :thumbs-up and :100 work.
  2. 1.1.1
    • Hyphenated names are found: left-facing, heart-eyes, upside-down, star-struck.
    • Typing only a colon or a dash no longer lists the whole table as if it were a result.
    • Searching and browsing do less work on every keystroke and redraw.
  3. 1.1.0
    • Type a colon and a name, like :tada, in the palette to find an emoji without opening Emoji first.
  4. 1.0.0
    • First release: every emoji in a searchable grid in the palette.
