Tips for using them

• Tap a face to copy it, then paste it with a long press on your phone or Ctrl+V on a computer. Turn on Collect to line up several faces and copy them in one go.
• Kaomoji are text, so they take the font of the app. A face can look a little wider or narrower in WhatsApp than here; that is normal.
• If a face shows an empty box on an old phone, it uses a rare character (from Spacing Modifier Letters, Dingbats, CJK Compatibility Forms). Pick a face without it.
