How to type the rainbow
Windows
There is no Alt code or direct key for 🌈. In Microsoft Word, type 1F308 and press Alt+X to convert it. Everywhere else, click the Copy button at the top of this page and paste it (Ctrl+V) — that always works.
Mac
There is no Option-key shortcut for 🌈 on a Mac. Open the Character Viewer with Control+Command+Space, search for "Rainbow", and double-click to insert — or copy it from this page.
iPhone & Android
Most phone keyboards have no built-in key for 🌈. Open this page on your phone, tap Copy, then paste it into your message or bio. (On Android, Gboard's emoji search finds some symbols by name.)

Frequently asked questions
How do I copy the 🌈 symbol?
Click the big 🌈 at the top of this page to copy it, then paste it wherever you need it — posts, documents, bios and messages.
Is it an emoji or a text symbol?
Older glyphs like ☀ ☁ ☂ ☃ ❄ ⚡ began as text symbols and still paste as characters; some phones display them in colour. 🌈 is emoji-only. Either way, what you copy here works everywhere.
Why does 🌈 sometimes show as a box or question mark?
The box (called tofu) means the device or font viewing it has no drawing for U+1F308 (Rainbow). The character itself is fine — try a different font or a newer device, or use one of the variants on this page.
Is the Rainbow free to use?
Yes. 🌈 is a standard Unicode text character published in the Unicode Character Database. You may use it in personal and commercial documents, designs and products without permission or payment.
