History & usage: CLOCK FACE TWO-THIRTY depicts a clock face showing two-thirty. Use it in quick messages to mark a meeting time. Place it in UI to indicate a time setting or deadline. Include it in notes or chat to signal when something starts at 2:30. When planning schedules, the emoji helps convey time without words. In dashboards or reminders, it can stand in for a clock icon to catch attention. The meaning depends on context and may vary across platforms, apps, and fonts. If colors differ or rendering is missing, use surrounding text to clarify. For accessibility, ensure screen readers convey the intended time and provide text alternatives. Cross-platform, check appearance and provide fallback text to keep meaning clear.
Copy and input: the quickest method is to copy the character here. You can also insert it by its codepoint U+1F55D 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.
