How to type it
There's no universal keyboard shortcut for heart symbol alt codes, so copying directly from the grid above is usually the fastest method.
On Windows, open Character Map (search "charmap" in the Start menu), find the character by name, and copy it — or use Word's Alt+X trick: type the hex codepoint (2661) right after the cursor, then press Alt+X to convert it.
On Mac, press Control + Command + Space to open the Character Viewer, then search for "white heart suit" or browse by category.
On iPhone and iPad, there's no built-in picker for most of these characters — copying from this page is the practical option.
In Word, use the Alt+X trick above, or go to Insert > Symbol > More Symbols and search by Unicode name or codepoint (U+2661).
In Google Docs, go to Insert > Special characters and either draw the shape or search by name.
Frequently asked
- Do all heart symbols have an alt code?
- No. Only ♥ (Black Heart Suit) and ♡ (White Heart Suit) have alt codes, because they exist in the legacy Windows codepages alt codes are built on. Emoji hearts and the heavier ornamental hearts don’t have one — copy them directly instead.
- Why does the alt code need the numeric keypad?
- Windows alt codes read input from the numeric keypad specifically, not the number row above the letters. On a laptop without one, hold Fn and use the keys with small numbers printed on them, or copy the symbol instead.
