Characters, faces and text art to copy and paste

Copy it, paste it, done

Everything on this page is ready-made text: symbols, text faces, emoji sets, a blank character and art made of characters. Pick a tool, tap Copy and paste the result into your Instagram bio, a WhatsApp chat, a TikTok caption, a Discord server or a game nickname.

These are characters, not pictures, so they paste like any letter you type. Nothing to install and no sign-up: every tool works in the browser on your phone or computer, and what you type stays on your device.

Start from where you'll paste it

Each tool fits a different job. Pick by what you want the result to do.

• A bio or caption that stands out: stars, hearts and dividers from the symbols library, or a ready-made emoji combination
• A reaction in a chat: a kaomoji for every mood, or a Lenny face when the moment calls for ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
• A name or message that looks empty: the invisible character generator gives you a blank that most apps accept
• A big word made of characters: ASCII art turns your text into a banner, image to ASCII turns a photo into text art
• A Discord message with style: colored text uses the ansi code block, the formatter handles bold, spoilers and headings

Symbols, kaomoji and emoji are not the same thing

A symbol is one character, like ★, ♡ or →. Your phone draws it with the same font as your text, so it matches the letters around it and works in almost every app.

A kaomoji is a face built from several characters, like (◕‿◕) or (╯°□°)╯. It reads left to right, so it fits inside a sentence. Lenny faces are kaomoji too, with a few symbols that some fonts draw a little differently.

An emoji is drawn by your phone or app, in color. The same emoji can look different on an iPhone, an Android phone and a computer, so check a combination on the device your friends use before you post it.

When it shows boxes or disappears

If you see boxes ▯ where a character should be, the app you pasted into has no font for it. Try a different symbol, or keep to the simpler ones: hearts, stars and arrows work almost everywhere.

Some apps remove blank characters when you save, and games often limit how long a name can be or reject some symbols. Paste it where you plan to use it and check before you settle on one.

ASCII art only lines up in a monospace font, where every character takes the same width. On Discord, put it inside a code block; in a normal chat bubble the lines can slide apart.
