History & usage: LARGE YELLOW CIRCLE depicts a simple geometric emoji used in messaging and interfaces. It can signal a round object, a mood cue, or a neutral placeholder in text and UI.

In UI, use it to separate items or indicate a light, approachable tone while keeping intent clear.

Copy and input: the quickest method is to copy the character here. You can also insert it by its codepoint U+1F7E1 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.
