Clipboard Emoji

Objects

A stiff rectangular board with a metal clip at the top holding a piece of paper. The paper typically features blue or black horizontal lines, indicating a list or a set of notes.

Usage Context

Used to represent organization, tasks, or the act of tracking information. It is frequently sent when sending a checklist or confirming that a set of instructions is being processed. It pairs naturally with the ✅ check mark or 📝 memo emoji to signal task completion.

History

Included in Unicode 6.0 in 2010, the clipboard icon was added to reflect the digitization of administrative work. Before smartphones, the physical clipboard was the standard tool for inventory management and medical charting, and the emoji preserves this legacy of manual record-keeping in a digital format.
