Did you know that using emojis can help you connect with your audience on a deeper level? Emojis can add a touch of personality to your posts, make your content more engaging, and even help you stand out in a crowded feed.

How LinkedIn emojis work

When using emojis on LinkedIn, here's what you need to know:

  • Device differences: The design of emojis can vary depending on the device you're using (e.g., Samsung, Google, Apple, or Microsoft). This means that the same emoji might look slightly different to different users.
  • Custom emoji picker: LinkedIn's web browser version has a custom emoji picker that allows you to toggle skin tones.
  • Emoji limitations: The picker only includes emojis up to Emoji 4.0 (2016), so you won't find newer emojis like 😶‍🌫️ Face in Clouds (2020) here.

LinkedIn emoji reactions

LinkedIn offers unique emoji reactions for responding to comments. These reactions have their own distinct designs, separate from the general emoji support on the platform. They provide a quick and easy way to engage with others' comments on LinkedIn.

Best practices for using emojis on LinkedIn

Here are some tips to keep in mind when using emojis on LinkedIn:

  • Use them sparingly: Emojis should enhance your content, not overwhelm it. Use them to add tone and personality to your posts, but avoid overdoing it.
  • Be authentic: Choose emojis that align with your brand's voice and tone. This will help you build a consistent and recognizable identity on LinkedIn.
  • Experiment with different emojis: Don't be afraid to try out new emojis and see how they resonate with your audience.

By following these guidelines and incorporating emojis into your LinkedIn strategy, you can increase engagement, humanize your brand, and build stronger relationships with your audience.
