Flags for sports fans
Big tournaments are when flag emoji really shine. During cricket and football world cups, fans fill comments and stories with their teamโs flag. A score update like โ๐ฎ๐ณ 287/5 vs ๐ฆ๐บ 284 ๐๐ฅโ tells the whole story in one line. You can also put your teamโs flag in your name during the tournament to show your support.
Flags for travel and languages
Travellers use flags to share where they have been: โ๐น๐ญ โ ๐ป๐ณ โ ๐ฐ๐ญโ. Students abroad often show their home and host countries, like ๐ง๐ฉ โ๏ธ ๐จ๐ฆ. Language learners and teachers use flags to list the languages they speak, and businesses use them to show which countries they ship to or which languages their support team covers.
Remember that flags stand for countries, not languages. Many languages are spoken in several countries, so some people prefer to write the language name too.
Why flags can look different
Each flag emoji is made of two regional indicator letters based on the countryโs two-letter code, like IN for India or BD for Bangladesh. Phones and Macs turn the pair into a picture. Windows usually shows the letters instead of the picture, but the flag is still there, and anyone on a phone will see it correctly.
A few flags change over time when a country updates its design. Device makers update their emoji artwork in later software updates.
Find a flag fast
Type the country name in the search box, such as โBrazilโ, โGermanyโ or โSri Lankaโ, and its flag appears instantly. You can also search by the two-letter code, like โflag: NPโ. Open a flag with the i button to see the letters that make it up.
Special flags
Besides country flags, there are flags for ideas and events: the chequered flag ๐ for racing and finishing, the white flag ๐ณ๏ธ for giving up or peace, the triangular red flag ๐ฉ for warnings, the rainbow flag ๐ณ๏ธโ๐ for LGBTQ+ pride and the pirate flag ๐ดโโ ๏ธ for fun. You will find these in the flags category.
