History & usage: The THERMOMETER depicts a temperature symbol used in text and UI. It signals fever or temperature readings in health chat, alerts, and app dashboards. It can mark weather notes or device status in messages, helping users judge comfort or risk. Use it to clarify temperature in instructions or status indicators, so readers understand quickly what is being measured. Cross‑platform appearances vary by color, shape, and style, so keep the surrounding text clear and avoid ambiguity. For accessibility, ensure screen readers rely on the text around the emoji to convey the exact meaning.

Copy and input: the quickest method is to copy the character here. You can also insert it by its codepoint U+1F321 in many development tools or editors. Some operating systems provide a character viewer or input palette that lets you search by name or code and insert the glyph into documents.

Display and fallback: if you see an empty box (tofu) or a placeholder rectangle, the active font might not include this codepoint. Switching to a font with broader Unicode coverage or using a fallback font usually fixes the issue. On the web, ensure the page’s font stack includes a general‑purpose fallback.
