☺️ Smiling Face

This smiling face predates emoji, and works in all manner of older browsers and operating systems.

The modern version of this emoji has a smiling mouth, happy eyes, rosy red cheeks and eyebrows in the Apple artwork. Differs slightly from the Smiling Face With Smiling Eyes emoji which does not include eyebrows, and has a different style of smiling eyes.

When viewed on Android, no eyebrows are present in the Google artwork.

See the glossary for information on the term white in unicode character names.

Smiling Face was approved as part of Unicode 1.1 in 1993 under the name “White Smiling Face” and added to Emoji 1.0 in 2015.
