Selfie 🤳

Usage snapshot:

Emojis convey ideas, emotions, or objects in messaging and interfaces; meaning depends on context.
Appearance can vary across platforms, apps, and fonts, so designs may differ in color, style, and detail.
Use emojis thoughtfully in UI and text; keep intent clear and avoid ambiguity in formal content.
If a platform lacks color emoji support, a monochrome or text‑style fallback may be shown.
For accessibility, ensure surrounding text conveys the intended meaning.

History & usage: The SELFIE emoji depicts a person taking a selfie. Use it to show a photo moment in chats, social posts, or captions when you want to signal a self-portrait or personal update. It can mark quick snapshots in a chat thread, announce a new profile photo, or convey a playful mood in casual messages. In apps or onboarding flows, it helps users describe sharing a moment or updating their image. For accessibility, ensure surrounding text conveys the intended meaning and provide alternative text if needed. If a platform lacks color emoji support, a monochrome or text style fallback may appear, but the overall meaning should remain clear across platforms.

Compatibility & troubleshooting
