History & usage: The CLOCK FACE SIX-THIRTY depicts a clock face set to 6:30 in the official name. Use it to show time segments, schedule cues, or reminders in chat and UI captions. It can indicate a specific meeting time, a deadline, or a reference point in a story or instructions. In dashboards, it helps mark half past the hour in timelines or progress notes. Its meaning comes from the time it conveys, and context clarifies whether it represents an appointment, a countdown, or a general reference to time. Be mindful of platform differences in color and style, and provide surrounding text so the meaning stays clear. For accessibility, ensure the text around the emoji communicates the intended time concept across platforms.
Copy and input: the quickest method is to copy the character here. You can also insert it by its codepoint U+1F561
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.
