    It’s more powerful than the one in Windows and faster than installing a third-party one. Also it does unit conversions.

  1. I haven’t seen a built in picker for multi-character emojis, like the ¯_(ツ)_/¯ (on OSX and Android)
  2. Sometimes the description I’m thinking of and the picker text doesn’t line up, but I’m not sure if Google’s picker will be that smart.

    #1 is more ascii art than an emoji, but that could be a cool thing to integrate into a picker—customizable ascii text that you can search by keyword.

      It exists on the iOS keyboard! (In Japanese) ( ^ω^ )

      Although, it’s not customisable

        HeliBoard on Android also offers the ascii emoticons

    I think the windows emoji picker has ascii emojis but yeah it’s missing from the others. If it’s only a couple you can add them to a shortcut or pin them on your clipboard.
