How to copy & paste kaomoji
Found a kaomoji you love but not sure how to copy it — or it won't paste? This page walks through copying and pasting kaomoji on iPhone, Android and computer, plus using them in LINE, X and Discord, and what to do when it just won't work. ( ´ ▽ ` )ﾉ
Copy in one tap
No fiddly steps at Kaomojikan. Find a kaomoji you like and tap it — that's it. It's copied on the spot, and the shop cat gives a little hop to let you know.
- Find a kaomoji by mood or category.
- Tap the kaomoji. That's the whole copy step.
- Switch to the app you want, and paste.
There's no copy button to hunt for — the kaomoji itself is the button, so a single tap brings ( ´ ▽ ` )ﾉ straight to your clipboard.
Pasting on iPhone, Android & PC
Once it's copied, pasting differs slightly by device.
iPhone & iPad
Long-press the text field where you want it, then tap Paste from the menu. The kaomoji drops right in.
Android
Long-press the input field and choose Paste. On many phones you can also paste from the keyboard's clipboard.
Computer (Windows & Mac)
Click into the field, then press Ctrl + V on Windows or Command + V on Mac. Right-click → Paste works too.
Using them in LINE, X & Discord
A copied kaomoji pastes straight into the apps you already use.
- LINE — long-press the message box and paste. Unlike a sticker, a kaomoji slips neatly into the middle of a sentence. (*´꒳`*)
- X (Twitter) — paste into the compose box. Even within the character limit, one kaomoji softens the whole tone.
- Discord — paste into the message bar and send. Expressive faces suit reactions and game chat perfectly.
In every app, a kaomoji is just text, so it sends as-is with no special setup. Match your mood with cute or happy kaomoji.
When it won't copy or paste
If copying doesn't work, don't worry — try these:
- Update your browser to the latest version, or reload the page.
- Long-press the kaomoji to select it by hand, then choose Copy from the menu.
- In the target app, tap the input field firmly before pasting.
- If a kaomoji with rare symbols shows as □ or ?, pick one built from simpler symbols.
Simple, paste-anywhere classics live in cute kaomoji; the why-it-breaks details are in Kaomoji vs Emoji.
