FAQ

What does the πŸ‡© regional indicator D emoji mean?

πŸ‡© is the regional indicator letter D, a building block that phones combine with a second letter to make country flag emojis. Apple's artwork shows a black letter D inside a dashed square.

Why did my πŸ‡© turn into a flag?

When πŸ‡© is placed right before another regional indicator letter that forms a country code, the phone shows a flag instead. Add a space between the letters to stop this.

How do I type πŸ‡© alone?

Copy it from an emoji list or site, since most keyboards only offer full flags. Put a space after it so it does not merge with the next letter.

Are the backgrounds transparent?

Yes, every PNG has a transparent background.
