Emoji Picker

Overview

Raycast’s built-in Emoji Picker allows you to find any emoji or symbol in lightning speed and hit Enter to Paste it into your active input field.

You can access it by searching for the ‘Search Emoji & Symbols’ command in root search, but we strongly recommend setting a Hotkey to access it anytime directly by opening Raycast Settings (Ctrl ,) and going to either the Shortcuts or Emoji & Symbols section.

Custom Keywords

You can also assign additional Custom Keywords to each Emoji or Symbol, in order to find it more easily in the future. To do so, open the Ctrl K menu and select Edit Custom Keywords (or hit Ctrl E directly).
