Emoji Swap Extension

Swaps system emojis with another emoji family, via the magic of webfonts. Enables your Chrome browser to display colored emojis even if your OS does not support it. The extension should work automatically after installation. The extension also provides a few options to manage the emojis. Emojis included:

✅ Noto Color Emoji
✅ Twemoji
✅ Blobmoji
✅ OpenMoji
✅ Fluent Emoji
✅ Noto Emoji Mono
✅ Openmoji Black
✅ OpenSans+Noto
✅ Fluent Emoji Mono
✅ EmojiTwo

* Emoji attributions are included in the help file
* Noto Color and Blobmoji emojis have support for Unicode v15.0

🔔 Limitations
This extension should work for 90% of web pages out there, but note the following technical limitations.

★ Uses WOFF2 and TTF webfonts so may cause issues if your browser has poor support for webfonts.
★ Only replaces emojis that are already available during the initial page load. Emojis added after via ajax, lazy-loading or other scripts will not be affected.
★ Only works if browser is connected to the internet. It pulls emoji data from the internet, so replacement emojis may not appear if you're offline.
★ Also, replacement emojis will not appear when viewing local HTML files.
★ A 2-second delay was added when loading Emojis in YouTube since YouTube partially adds/pulls/shows content on a on-demand basis.
★ Can cause pages that contain many emojis to load very slowly.
★ May interfere with websites that interact with or are reliant on text emojis for their functionality.
★ May interfere with other emoji-related extensions.

👍 Advantages

★ Replaces the default emoji set if you're not happy with the default emoji that comes with your OS.
★ Adds emoji support to Chrome, even if not supported by the OS.
★ Includes emojis that support Unicode v15.
★ Flags are shown correctly as actual flags, instead of the two-letter combo.

Sites that load a lot of emojis per tab may cause the extension to freeze.

Dakota Horner (ID: 0000007e093a0f1d) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 10/16/2023 It's good and works very well, but I would really like if it had Apple emojis.

Joseph Edgar (ID: 0000006b651e5345) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 08/31/2023 Amazing, I've been searching for a way to use blobmoji again after google removed them, this is perfect! If the developer takes donations, I'd gladly support.

Peter (ID: 00000016459feccf) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 07/20/2023 At home I am a Mac user, at work Windows user. Hence I had to use this extension and it does the job! 👏👏

Cruz Cáceres (ID: 000000f1204b48bf) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 07/13/2023 Excelente aplicación como la anterior del autor llamada "Twemoji for Chrome" pero en esta oportunidad te permite elegir entre una serie de diseños de emojis, entre ellos el Fluent de Microsoft si no te has atrevido a actualizar a Windows 11 😆, muchas gracias, se ve bastante bien! ⭐

Lucas Pestana (ID: 000000adc78217b0) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 04/22/2023 Works very well in Chromium-based Microsoft Edge, thank you!! To Roderick the dev, if you're reading this, I have a few questions and requests: 1. Make this extension available as both in the Microsoft Edge and Mozilla Firefox add-ons webstores. 2. I saw you used Android's emoji set for the country flags. I'd suggest maybe adding a separate toggle for flag emojis only, allowing choice between Android's (wavy), Twemoji (rounded rectangles) or some other simple design (plain rectangles with squared borders). 3. Two more suggestions: if possible, please add these emoji sets: JoyPixels, WhatsApp's latest, Apple's iOS, Microsoft Teams' & Windows 11's Fluent emojis, also Skype's own custom emojis (animated maybe? I doubt it's possible, but hopefully…) -- JoyPixels (formerly EmojiOne) is my favorite emoji pack on Telegram for Desktop, I really like them -- and miss them here! However, I understand there might be licensing limitations which could cause you trouble, so tread carefully so your extension doesn't get pulled from the Web Store(s).
