Sleeping Face 😴
😴 (U+1F634) is a standard Unicode character that you can copy and paste anywhere text is accepted. This page provides a concise reference with safe tips, internal links, and practical guidance so you can use it reliably across apps and platforms.
What it is and where it’s used: Sleeping Face is part of the Symbols family (block: Emoticons). If you need styled or decorative alternatives, try our Fancy Text tool to generate compatible text that works in most modern interfaces.
History & usage: SLEEPING FACE depicts rest and sleep. In chat, use it to show you are sleepy after a long day or need to rest soon. It can indicate you are dozing off during a moment of quiet, or that you are postponing an activity until tomorrow with a light mood. It may also express a calm, dreamy, or relaxed vibe in a casual message. Remember that appearance varies across platforms, apps, and fonts, so color, style, and detail can differ. Use it thoughtfully in UI and text, keeping intent clear to avoid ambiguity, especially in formal content. If a platform lacks color emoji support, a monochrome fallback may appear. For accessibility, ensure surrounding text conveys the intended meaning and provide alt text when needed.
Copy and input: the quickest method is to copy the character here. You can also insert it by its codepoint U+1F634
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.

Compatibility & troubleshooting

Web pages: ensure your CSS font stack includes a general fallback; avoid relying on images for common symbols to preserve accessibility and copyability.
