To use TikTok's special or secret emojis, follow these steps:
How to Use TikTok Secret Emojis
- Open the TikTok app on your iOS or Android device.
- Go to the comments section of any video.
- Type a secret emoji code enclosed in square brackets, for example,
[smile]or[wow]. - As soon as you type the code, TikTok will automatically convert it into the corresponding hidden emoji.
- These secret emojis only work in comments (and sometimes captions), but not in usernames or browser versions of TikTok.
Examples of Secret Emoji Codes
Some popular secret emoji codes include:
[smile]– a cheerful pink smiley face[happy]– peach-toned open-mouth grin[angry]– red scowling face[cry]– blue face with tears[wow]– surprised face[wronged]– shy pleading face with fingers pointed at each other
There are 46 such hidden emojis available on TikTok, each with its own shortcode inside square brackets
How to Add Emojis to Your Username
You can also add regular emojis (not secret codes) to your TikTok username by editing your profile:
- Go to your profile and tap "Edit Profile."
- Tap the username field.
- Use your device's emoji keyboard to add emojis you like.
- Save changes to update your username with emojis
By using these secret emoji codes in comments or captions, you can make your TikTok interactions more fun and engaging with unique visuals exclusive to the app
