User Reviews
Pros
- Huge variety of Unicode symbols and the ability to enable only desired categories on the keyboard.
- Free to use with no mandatory subscription and not requiring full device access.
- Well-organized layout with customizable categories and a 'frequently used' / favorites feature.
- Keyboard extension that lets you type symbols directly in apps without leaving the keyboard.
Cons
- Aggressive advertising: full-screen ads on launch and occasionally intrusive ads in-app (including non-English language ads).
- Crashes or unusable state after updates or when enabling the keyboard extension.
- Weak search/navigation: searching often filters categories or requires scrolling; finding specific symbols is hard.
- Incomplete Unicode coverage: missing common symbols (e.g., gender symbols) and other symbol varieties.
- Overly cluttered categories and scrolling; users want all symbols visible or preset organization.

Yeah right. Going to the app again and again just to type one symbol over and over again like bro, I can't make a paragraph!

I love having all of Unicode available when I’m typing, however it can be challenging to find a specific symbol when it’s hidden at the bottom of the list inside one of countless categories. I would love a search feature where you type in the name of the character you’re looking for, if such a thing is possible. It would also be nice if the categories were arranged more intuitively, because it takes a lot of niche knowledge to understand the default categories.
