What does ❤️ mean?
The plain red heart. The most neutral and most serious of the heart emojis — it carries the least irony.
❤️ is the red heart emoji. It belongs to the Smileys & Emotion group, in the heart set, and was approved as part of Emoji 0.6.
People also search for it as emotion, heart, love, red.
How to use ❤️
Romantic love, family, deep friendship, and condolence. Because it is unambiguous, it reads as more sincere than the coloured or decorated hearts.
Click the copy button above to put ❤️ on your clipboard, then paste it anywhere Unicode is supported — WhatsApp, Instagram, TikTok, Discord, Slack, email, or a document. On Slack, Discord and GitHub you can also type the shortcode :heart: directly.
Good to know
It is one of the older emoji, which is why it needs a variation selector to render in colour. In some plain-text contexts it still appears as a black outline.
