Ah, digital communication, the fine art of misinterpretation. Who hasn't sent an email or message only to have it read in the completely wrong tone?
Cue the awkward follow-up explaining, "That was a joke." Enter emojis, our digital saviors that sprinkle personality into our otherwise bland texts. But let's face it, finding the right emoji often feels like searching for a needle in a haystack.
And then you are trying to open the Emojie window on the mac. How was the shortcut again? Tap the little globe once or twice or was it control + command + space? Or the function key? Then the window opens, no wait, it's gone again... Does this actually work in this app? Or do I need to open the note app, typ it in, copy it and past it. WTF Apple.
So ask Google if I wasn't the only person on the internet with this problem...
... And it turned out: No I wasn't
Slack saved emojies. Now Rocket saves macOS.
Well, fear not, weary texters! Rocket, a nifty tool for Mac users, is here to catapult your emoji game to stratospheric heights.
So there it is: Rocket.
So check out the website of Matthew Palmer, spread some love, leave a tip for his incredible work.
Or let's quote The Verge here
It works pretty much anywhere your keyboard does. Enter a colon when you want to use an emoji, type its name, and hit enter again to insert. It’s much more convenient than using the Mac’s built-in emoji keyboard
I know it's from 2026, but better late then never 😄 (this emoji was written by Rocket).
