U+1F4A9 ยท emoji since 2010
The smiling pile of poo is proof that emoji don't take themselves seriously. It calls things rubbish, celebrates toilet humor, and somehow stays cheerful doing it.
Kids adore it, group chats abuse it, and it remains one of the most recognized emoji ever drawn. When something stinks, literally or figuratively, you know what to send.
In texting, ๐ฉ does not carry a widely used hidden or slang meaning, so you can usually take it at face value. People send it just as it looks, to add a little visual touch or set the mood of a message. Only a handful of emoji have a separate texting code, and ๐ฉ is not really one of them.
Its official Unicode name is the Pile of Poo emoji. In everyday chat most people just call it the pile of poo emoji or describe what it shows. Copy and paste it from the button at the top of this page.
The ๐ฉ leads off a short phrase, and the rest of the words are written in cipher, every letter disguised as another emoji. Tap decipher to reveal the whole line.
