Emoji reactions in Microsoft Edge

Edge can install Emojery from its own store or from Chrome's. They are not equivalent, and only one of them is reviewed by Microsoft.

Install it

  1. Open the Emojery listing on Microsoft Edge Add-ons.
  2. Click Get, then Add extension in the confirmation.
  3. Pin it to the toolbar so the popup is 1 click away. Step by step.
  4. On Android, install Edge for Android and add the extension there.
Drawing Pinned, the icon sits beside the address bar and counts the Emojery buttons on the page you are looking at.

What you are installing

Prefer the Edge Add-ons listing. Edge will happily install from the Chrome Web Store - the setting that permits it is on by default - but Microsoft does not review extensions installed that way, so that route gives you Google's review instead of both.

Either way the package is the same open code: public under GPL-3.0, with every permission explained and everything it sends written down. If you would rather trust neither store, build it yourself.

Installing from the Chrome Web Store instead

Open the Chrome Web Store listing in Edge and a banner offers Get extension. The first time, Edge asks whether to allow extensions from other stores; allowing it applies to every extension from then on, not just this one.

It works, and it is the fallback if the Edge listing is ever behind on a release. It is not the default recommendation, for the review reason above.

Work profile and personal profile

Edge leans on profiles harder than most browsers, and a managed work profile is a separate install with its own extensions, settings and pinned toolbar. Adding Emojery in one does nothing in the other.

Worth knowing before you install it at work: an organization can block extensions by policy, in which case the listing will refuse to add rather than fail quietly afterwards.

Using a different browser?

Add it to Edge

Microsoft's own listing is the one to use, and the same extension carries over to Edge for Android.
