How to Type ♥
Windows
Use Character Map, the touch keyboard symbol panel, or copy the symbol above.
Microsoft Word
Type 2665, then Alt+X. Word converts the hexadecimal Unicode value into the symbol.
Mac
Press Control+Command+Space to open Character Viewer, search for the symbol name, and insert it. Copy and paste is often faster for occasional use.
Chromebook and Linux
On supported systems, press Ctrl+Shift+U, type 2665, and press Enter. Chromebook users can also use the on-screen keyboard or copy the symbol.
iPhone and Android
Long-press related keyboard keys when the symbol is built in. Otherwise, copy it from this page and paste it into the destination app.
Meaning and Correct Use
It is a monochrome text character, unlike colorful heart emoji whose appearance varies by platform.
Use the exact Unicode character rather than a visually similar substitute when meaning, search, sorting, accessibility, or computer processing matters.
