Purple heart emoji meaning

The purple heart emoji is a symbol that represents affection, kindness, and love, but without the romantic meaning often associated with the red heart. It is commonly used to show appreciation, gratitude, or support, especially in online conversations and on social media. The deep purple color sets this heart emoji apart, giving it a unique and easily recognizable appearance among other heart emojis. It is often chosen to convey emotions like admiration, loyalty, or even to represent things associated with the color purple, such as creativity or luxury.

The purple heart emoji was approved in Unicode 6.0 and added in Emoji 1.0, see related proposal L2/09026
