🔔 Limitations
This extension should work for 90% of web pages out there, but note the following technical limitations.
- Uses WOFF2 and TTF web fonts so may cause issues if your browser has poor support for web fonts.
- 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.
- 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. If you feel that this extension has made your favorite sites slow or unusable, use the Options page to add them to the exception list.
