How it works
The emoji tab lists emoji frequency and categories from the imported messages. Explore the detail view for a closer look.
Step by step
Open an analysis and select the emoji tab.
Read the emoji counts and open the detailed view.
Compare a frequent emoji with its count rather than treating its label as a diagnosis.
What to keep in mind
Emoji frequency describes usage, not a person’s emotions or personality. Text emoticons and every possible symbol are not equivalent to detected emoji.
Opening chart and emoji details for your own chats requires Pro. The sample chat is fully unlocked.
Your first analysis is free. Pro unlocks unlimited analyses, full Wrapped and sharing. See the app for current local prices.
Questions and answers
What do the statistics actually measure?
Results describe the successfully parsed messages in the imported file. Missing history affects totals. Response times and conversation endings are timestamp rules, not read receipts or evidence of feelings.
Can I analyze more than one chat?
Your first analysis is free. Pro unlocks unlimited analyses, full Wrapped and sharing. See the app for current local prices. Each imported chat is analyzed separately; multiple chats in one archive are not a verified import path.
