Facebook symbols are standard Unicode characters, such as stars, hearts and flowers, that you can copy and paste into a comment, a post or a profile on Facebook. This page lists 36 symbols with their official names and code points, plus tips for using them.
Select a symbol in the table, copy it and paste it where you want it. Symbols are plain text, so they work wherever you can type, although an older phone or app may show an empty box instead of a symbol. This page is part of SoShareIT, where you can find other free tools and collections.

How to use Facebook symbols
Using the symbols is easy: copy a symbol and paste it into a comment, a post, a status or the bio on your profile. Mixing two or three symbols with a short line of text is usually enough to make a message stand out. If a symbol shows as an empty box, try another one from the list.
