How to Use Unicode Character Inspector
- 1
Paste or type your text
Enter any text in the input box — plain ASCII, accented letters, emoji, CJK characters, RTL scripts, or a mix. You can also click a sample button to load a ready-made example like 'Emoji mix' or 'Zero-width'.
- 2
Read the Summary panel
The Summary row shows total character count, unique code points, total UTF-8 byte count, non-ASCII character count, and how many characters fall inside vs. outside the Basic Multilingual Plane (BMP).
- 3
Inspect individual character cards
Each character gets its own card showing: the glyph, its Unicode code point (e.g. U+1F30D), official name, category badge (Letter, Emoji, Control…), UTF-8 bytes, UTF-16 code units, HTML entity, and JavaScript escape sequence.
- 4
Copy any encoding
Click the small 'copy' button next to any encoding value — UTF-8 bytes, UTF-16 units, HTML entity, or JS escape — to copy that representation directly to your clipboard. Use this to paste exact escape sequences into your source code.
