🤮 How face vomiting Looks Across Platforms

face vomiting is one standardized Unicode character, encoded since Emoji E5.0 (2017) — yet it looks different on every device, because every vendor draws its own artwork. EmojiSelect shows 4 legally licensed open emoji sets — and below, why the artwork differs.

A note of honesty

Apple (iPhone, iOS) and Samsung (One UI) draw their own proprietary emoji artwork, which cannot legally be reproduced here. Unicode standardizes the character and its name — each vendor draws it differently, which is why the same emoji looks different on every device.

Why does the artwork differ between devices?

  • Unicode defines the character and its official name — not the artwork.
  • Android renders emoji with Google's Noto Color Emoji font.
  • Windows 11 renders emoji with Microsoft's Fluent Emoji.
  • X (Twitter) renders emoji on the web with the open Twemoji set.
  • Apple and Samsung ship proprietary fonts we don't host; your device draws its own vendor artwork.
