On Windows 10
On Windows 10, the shrug emoji is typed with a combination of shift, control and number 8.
To do this, press shift and control together. Then press 8 on the number pad or the “Num Lock” button if you’re using a laptop. If you have an external keyboard, it should already have numbers in place for you to use; otherwise look for a small key above letters on your keyboard that says “Num Lock” and check its status by pressing Fn + Num Lock (or whatever key it may be labeled as). When this is enabled, every time you type in numbers—like when using alt codes—the keys will function normally instead of producing capital letters like they usually do. This allows us to type out another combination of symbols such as our shrug emoticon: simply put down alt + 1 then alt + 3 then alt + 8 (or just press all four at once).
On macOS
On macOS, you can type a shrug emoji by pressing the following keys:
- Option+Shift+3
- Command+Shift+3
- Shift+3
- Option + Shift + 3
On Linux
If you’re a Linux user, the simplest way to type the shrug emoji is to use the ` (backtick) key. This key is typically in the very upper left corner of your keyboard and looks like this:
- On Mac keyboards, it’s next to Esc, above Tab
- On Windows keyboards, it’s second from the top row of your number pad.
Using this key requires pressing Shift+4 at the same time; however, many Linux distributions also allow you to type Alt Gr + 4 instead—which means that if you have an international keyboard with both Alt and Windows keys (such as on MacBooks), then all that’s needed is a quick tap of either one followed by 4.
On Android
If you want to type a shrug emoji on Android, follow these steps:
- Install the Google Keyboard from the Play Store if it’s not already installed.
- Open any app that accepts text input (e.g., Gmail) and tap on your keyboard icon in the lower-left corner of your screen to open up the keyboard settings menu.
- Tap “Emoji & Symbols” at the top of this menu, then select “Google” under “Keyboard.” This will open up your device’s emoji keyboard if it isn’t already there by default—if it is, skip to step 4!
- Use one finger (or two fingers on some devices) to drag any emojis into your text field by holding down on an emoji until all its options appear as thumbnails below it; once they do, simply drag one thumbnail over another until both thumbnails disappear completely and a checkmark appears beside them when they’re both selected—then release!
On iOS
To type the shrug emoji, you need to use iOS.
- Open the emoji keyboard.
- Press and hold on your chosen emoji and then select “copy” from the options that appear at the bottom of your screen (you can also press ⌘C).
- Select where you want to paste it: in an email, text message or social media post; or in a note or document on your phone or tablet; then press ⌘V to paste the emoji into place!
