How to see iPhone emoji on android?

I don't want to be able to send emoji's because I know you can download apps for that.

But a lot of my friends on Instagram and Facebook use emoji's but they just come up as squares on my android. I know there's apps to copy and paste then to see, but I can't select text to copy when I'm on Instagram or Facebook, my phone just won't allow me.

So in a nutshell, is there a way to just be able to always see the emoji's on my android?

There's actually not a way, that I know of. It depends on what kind of Android phone you have. I have a Samsung Galaxy S3 and I can see emojis perfectly fine. My mom had an Android phone which was a Droid Global 2 and she couldn't see emojis when I sent her them. Now she has an S4 mini and she sees them. Same with my old phone too, I couldn't see them. I think it depends on how new your phone is.

If the sender sends messages as a MMS, then you can see emojis since they become part of the "picture message."
I downloaded a third party texting sms app, That allows me to see emojis through normal texts.

  • Why can't the people I'm texting you, see my emoji emoticons? Okay so, I text both my friends. And they have IPhones. One has an IPhone 4, and the other has a IPhone 5. And I have an IPod touch, why can't they see my emoji emoticons! They said all they see is "*", why is this? Can someone help?!
  • Why can't I see snaps on my iphone from an android snapchat user? My friend has an android my touch and every time he sends me or my girlfriend a video (we both have iphones) we can't see it? We can see his pics but not videos. We're able to see other videos from other android users and his wife who has an android can see his videos but why can't we? Any help would be awesome!
  • If you had a time machine and could see 1 person, who would you go see and why? I would see Aristotle, not only would I be able to bump shoulders with Alexander the Great I would love to pick at Aristotle's brain about philosophy, his views on life what he thinks the meaning is and how he sees the world in a few thousand years, maybe even slip an iPhone in his pocket and see if we have flying cars and floating houses when I come back to the present.
