Google Noto Emoji

Platform-Specific

Google's open-source emoji font family used on Android, Chrome, and available for anyone to use in their projects.

Google's Noto Emoji is part of the larger Noto font project ("No Tofu" — eliminating the □ placeholder for missing characters). The emoji set comes in two variants: Noto Color Emoji (full color, CBDT-based) and Noto Emoji (monochrome, outline style).

As an open-source font (Apache 2.0 license), Noto Emoji can be freely used in any project, making it popular for web applications, documentation, and products that need consistent emoji rendering.

Google's emoji designs tend toward a playful, rounded style. They are updated with each major Android release to support new Unicode emoji.
