Harmoji is the Harmattan implementation of Emoji. Harmoji enables the viewing of Emoji characters throughout the system, as well as inputting them.

It supports all the emoji found in the iOS version.

How to enable Harmoji:
Once you install the app, the device will reboot. From here, Harmoji is enabled to allow you to view Emoji icons. To input them yourself, you need to enable the Harmoji Keyboards.

This is done in Settings>Time & Language > Text Input > Installed Keyboards. Remember to select all the Keyboards listed as "Harmoji (x)"

Updating releases:
It is suggested to remove the existing version and rebooting before updating. For releases with updated keyboards, you will need to disable and then re-enable the keyboard for the changes to take full effect.

Uninstalling Harmoji:
When you uninstall Harmoji, disable the keyboards first, and then proceed with the uninstall.

Before anybody asks;
Sadly, it does not allow iPhone users to send a text containing Emoji. That is a bug in Harmattan itself.

Plans for upcoming release:
- Improved consistency between Harmoji keyboards, as well as native keyboard, in terms of layout.
- Enable coloured Emoji both viewing and input.
- Enable Keyboards automatically after installation.
- Remove the Android smiley [Added as of 0.7.3]
- If possible, remove the need for reboot [Added as of 0.7 ]

Known Bugs:
- Some Chinese users face an issue where two keys are swapped (either side of space bar)
- Can't send texts with Harmoji as of 0.7. Can send texts normally, but harmoji causes them to get the "could not send message to [number]" error
- Some characters show up as squares. A reboot fixes that

All feedback and criticism is welcomed and encouraged.

Special Thanks: Knobtviker (Dev help), @AliQudsi, TMavica (tester), Arie, AndyHagon, @SpunkyBloke (tester), zvjer (tester), Trayhoper (tester), Flopjoke (Font) and Brkn (OSX ML Support )

Hope to try it soon

They look cool, do you mind porting it to fremantle ? or it is impossible ?

i cant see download link, @_@

We'll have to wait some while more

Shouldn't be too long, although, I have an updated version, so I may push that quickly today, not sure. If I push it today, just means you may need to wait longer :/

I don't have an N900 ( I know, depressing ) but I don't think it would be too hard, as long as KBD can be customised. PM ME

Thanks Michael for the mention, awaiting it in the store now

I've discovered this when trying to fix emoji displaying in notifications for Wazapp.
Final result was that it was enabled system wide.

Thanks to all the testers, big thanks to Michael for making keyboards, packaging and publishing.

Special thanks to Flopjoke and Brkn that have worked relentless on making and baking the font in early stages with me.

Technical answers:

Only Apple has colored emojis because they used a special Unicode6.1 font embedding PNGs and preparing OS for it.

Harmattan system apps can display only black and white.
3rd party apps will have an API to use if they wish to use PNGs in color. Their apps will just work without any change with black and white. I've tested with most of popular apps.

Porting to Freamantle could be possible of someone reports back of the OS uses Fontconfig.

Maliit doesn't support PNG in keys. Askes the dev, he says it's interesting and will consider it.


For every other question please approach Michael.
I just hack stuff when we need them.

Thank you Michael for the application as well as mentioning me. Can't wait to get the final release.
