Emoji's in SMS
Published by Sue
App(s) Updated:
Web app
What does it do:
Emojis are now fully supported in all incoming (replies) and outgoing SMS messages, including marketing and reminder SMSs. 😊
What you need to know:
- Previously when a customer responded with an emoji, the SMS was received blank (empty) and outgoing SMSs did not support emojis
- Emojis can be added using a computer by copying and pasting from another source, such as an emoji website. If you search online you’ll find these sites immediately
- Emojis can also be added using the web app on a device that has emojis built into the keyboard – like mobile phones and tablets
- Please note, special characters such as emoji's unfortunately reduce your SMS character limit from 160 to 80
Why is this good:
Emojis are becoming more and more popular and are a great way to insert some fun into your messages 🍾🎆💃🏻
What does it look like:
