Love Letter 💌

💌 (U+1F48C) is a standard Unicode character that you can copy and paste anywhere text is accepted. This page provides a concise reference with safe tips, internal links, and practical guidance so you can use it reliably across apps and platforms.

What it is and where it’s used: Love Letter is part of the Symbols family (block: Miscellaneous Symbols and Pictographs). If you need styled or decorative alternatives, try our Fancy Text tool to generate compatible text that works in most modern interfaces.

History & usage: LOVE LETTER depicts a letter with a heart seal. In messaging, it signals affection, romance, or a sweet note between people. In interfaces, it can mark a romantic message, a gift notification, or a love-themed item to draw attention. Use emojis thoughtfully in UI and text; keep intent clear and avoid ambiguity in formal content. If a platform lacks color emoji support, a monochrome or text‑style fallback may be shown. For accessibility, ensure surrounding text conveys the intended meaning so screen readers and users understand the emotion or purpose behind the symbol. Across platforms, appearance can vary in color, style, and detail, so test in your target environments to maintain consistent intent.

Copy and input: the quickest method is to copy the character here. You can also insert it by its codepoint U+1F48C in many development tools or editors. Some operating systems provide a character viewer or input palette that lets you search by name or code and insert the glyph into documents.

Display and fallback: if you see an empty box (tofu) or a placeholder rectangle, the active font might not include this codepoint. Switching to a font with broader Unicode coverage or using a fallback font usually fixes the issue. On the web, ensure the page’s font stack includes a general‑purpose fallback.

Compatibility & troubleshooting

Web pages: ensure your CSS font stack includes a general fallback; avoid relying on images for common symbols to preserve accessibility and copyability.
