I created this tutorial for anyone who wants to add emojis to Facebook posts — the easy way, with built-in tools or keyboard shortcuts. Watch the video here:

Emojis aren’t just for fun — they boost engagement, draw attention, and make your posts more expressive. In this video, I walk through how to add emojis on desktop and mobile.
On desktop:
- Click into your status box
- Right-click and choose Emoji (on Mac, press Control + Command + Space)
- Select from the emoji picker and insert it into your text
On mobile:
- Use your device’s keyboard — emojis are built in
- You can even add them to names, event titles, and comments
I also give a few tips on how to use emojis strategically — like bookending a CTA with arrows or adding color to bullet points. You can overdo it, but just the right amount makes a post pop.
Do you have favorite emojis you use on every post?
