Get plain text out of emoji-heavy content

Emojis are handy in chats and captions, but they cause problems in other places: database fields that reject four-byte characters, print layouts, CSV exports, subtitle files, or systems that show boxes instead of icons. Emoji Remover takes a block of text and deletes emoji characters, leaving the words and numbers as they were typed.

How to use it

Paste your content into the Original Content box, or press the paste icon to pull it from the clipboard. The counter above the box updates with words and characters.
Click Remove All Emojis. There are no extra settings to choose.
The Clean Result panel shows your text without emojis, and Emojis Stripped shows the number of items removed.
Use the copy icon or the download icon, which saves no-emojis.txt.

What gets removed

The tool deletes the copyright and registered signs, plus everything in the Unicode range from U+2000 to U+3300, and the surrogate-pair blocks where most modern emojis live, such as faces, animals, food, transport and flags. That covers a wide sweep, but it is a broad range rather than an exact emoji list, and this has side effects worth knowing about.

Side effects and limits

Because the removed range starts at U+2000, general punctuation such as curly quotation marks, en and em dashes, ellipsis characters and bullets can be removed together with the emojis.
Currency and symbol characters in that range, for example the euro sign, the trademark sign and arrows, are also stripped.
Japanese hiragana and katakana, along with CJK punctuation, sit inside the same range, so do not use this tool on Japanese text.
Invisible variation selectors that follow some emojis may remain and appear as empty spots.
The Emojis Stripped count reflects every removed character, so it may include punctuation, not just emojis.

When it makes sense

Preparing survey or review exports for software that cannot store emojis.
Cleaning a caption before printing it on a label or a flyer.
Making notes readable for a text-to-speech or screen-reader workflow.
Sanitizing usernames or names copied from social profiles.

Run it on a sample first if your text includes typographic quotes or dashes, and compare the result to the original. Processing happens as JavaScript in your browser page.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will it remove curly quotes and dashes too?

It can. The tool removes the whole Unicode range from U+2000 to U+3300, which includes general punctuation like curly quotes, en and em dashes and ellipsis characters. Check the output and retype any punctuation you want to keep.

Does it work on Japanese or Chinese text?

Not safely for Japanese. Hiragana, katakana and CJK punctuation fall inside the removed range and will be deleted. Most Chinese characters are outside the range, but CJK punctuation marks are removed, so review the output.

Why does the count include things that are not emojis?

Emojis Stripped counts every match of the removal pattern, and that pattern covers a broad character range. Punctuation or symbols inside the range are counted as well, so the number can be higher than the emoji count you see.

Why are there blank gaps or odd characters left behind?

Some emojis are followed by invisible variation selectors that the pattern does not catch. They display as nothing or as a small gap. Retyping the spot or running a spacing cleanup usually fixes it.

Is there an option to keep some emojis?

No. The tool has a single Remove All Emojis action and no settings. To keep certain emojis, remove the ones you do not want by hand, or copy the ones you need back in from the original text.
