Use for indicating a selected option, making choices, form/survey contexts, or representing a decision point. The tone can shift depending on context — a message to a friend reads differently than one to a coworker.
What is the official Unicode name for 🔘?▼
Each emoji has an official name assigned by the Unicode Consortium, which may differ from common names used in apps. The Radio Button emoji's official designation is listed in the Unicode CLDR (Common Locale Data Repository). Shortcode names like those on Slack or Discord are platform-specific.
