Put an Emoji on a Chromebook from the shelf

This step is quite different from the first step. In short, you are going to access Emoji by clicking on the input options icon at the bottom. I feel its always easy to pick up an Emoji in that tiny box from there rather than go through whole process of adding Emoji from the On-Screen Keyboard.

1. Click on Time > Settings > Advanced > locate Languages and Input.
2. Now Enable Show input options.
   You can find that an extra option appears beside the Time or Avatar. Basically a Country’s name in short form. It shows “US” for the United States,  “GB” for Great Britain, etc.
3. Click on the option resembling your country name in a short form in the shelf.
4. Now, click on the smiley icon > choose the Emoji.
