Google brings Emoji Kitchen to the web

0

For those who use emojis regularly in their texting or their social media posts, there are times when you feel like you’ve been using the same emoji too many times. To solve that “problem”, Google introduced the Emoji Kitchen feature to its Gboard keyboard app back in 2020.

This allowed users to combine different emojis to form a new one, but the catch is that you would have to use Gboard. That won’t be the case anymore. According to a post by Jennifer Daniel on X, it seems that Google’s Emoji Kitchen is now available on the web. All users need to do is Google “emoji kitchen” to launch the feature and get cooking.

Keep in mind that not all emojis can be combined. Whatever you see in the list right now is basically it, but we imagine that Google will eventually add more combinations. As noted by 9to5Google, the combinations are less than what’s available on Android, but like we said, it is more than likely that Google will expand on this later on.

Another thing to note is that when you’ve created your emoji using the web tool, when you copy it, it will be created as a PNG file. This means that if you were to send it using a messenger app on your desktop like WhatsApp or Slack or Discord, it will be sent as an image file rather than an emoji.
