Four o’clock Emoji

Travel

A classic analog clock face displaying the time at four o’clock. The hour hand points toward the four, and the minute hand sits straight up at the twelve.

Usage Context

Used to coordinate meeting times, signal the end of a workday, or note specific deadlines. It is often swapped in for 3⃣ or 5⃣ when discussing shifts, office hours, or appointments.

History

Clocks were included in the early Japanese mobile carrier emoji sets to help users manage schedules over text. This specific design was standardized in Unicode 6.0 in 2010 to ensure digital watches and calendar apps could display time accurately across different operating systems.
