How to add a custom emoji to Google Chat

  1. 1

    Export the emoji as a square transparent PNG between 64 and 500 px; 128 is a safe middle.

  2. 2

    In Google Chat on the web, open the emoji picker in a message and choose Create custom emoji.

  3. 3

    Upload the PNG and give it a name; it appears as :name: for the organisation.

  4. 4

    Use it inline or as a reaction, in Chat and in Gmail.

What people actually make Google Chat emoji for

Workspace teams use custom emoji the way Slack teams do: a reaction for the recurring meeting, the release, the on-call handoff. The difference is that everything is organisation-wide from the start, so names should make sense to people outside your team.

Referenced as :name:. Emoji are shared across the organisation, and an admin can appoint emoji managers who can rename or remove them.

Worth knowing before you upload

  • If Create custom emoji is missing from the picker, the organisation has the feature off or limited to certain people. That is an Admin console setting, not a client problem.
  • Custom emoji can only be created from the web versions of Chat and Gmail, not from the mobile apps, though they can be used from mobile once they exist.
  • The file has to be square and between 64 and 500 pixels. A rectangular image is refused rather than cropped.
