  • Question

    How do I use emojis on a laptop?

    Community Answer

    The same way you would do on a desktop computer. Laptops also use a browser to access Instagram. There are 2 ways of doing this: You can right click the text box and press "Emoji", or click the smiley face icon. Both Instagram and Microsoft use the exact same emojis.

  • Question

    Why do some emojis not show up?

    Community Answer

    The emoji is not supported by the device you're on; there are a few emojis only on Microsoft, and several that were only unavailable on Microsoft until the Windows 11 update. If an emoji isn't supported on the platform, it will show up as a blank rectangle.
