Memo Emoji

Objects

A yellow notepad with a pencil resting diagonally across the paper. The paper features blue horizontal lines, signaling that a message or list has been scribbled down.

Usage Context

Used to signal that you are writing a note, preparing for an exam, or drafting a document. It is the go-to choice for digital to-do lists or reminders. People often pair it with ✍️ to emphasize the act of writing or 📅 when coordinating a schedule.

History

Added to the Unicode standard in 2010 as part of the initial emoji rollout, this icon draws directly from the early days of personal digital assistants and desktop note-taking software. It reflects the transition from physical legal pads to digital memos in mobile messaging apps.
