Description

From the listing uploaded by “appupdater”.

This application can be used as an Unicode explorer, or an advanced character picker. Completely free, no spying, no adds, no in-app purchases :-) The lite version does not include embedded fonts, nor extra support for Kanji characters (Unihan database). This makes it (much) smaller than the full version. You can browse the full Unicode range, jump to Unicode code points or blocks of your choice, or search in character names. For all characters you get the standard information in the Unicode Character Database (UCD). Supports characters beyond Basic Multilingual Plane (BMP) and Emoji (including the color Emoji starting with Android 4.3). Please let me know what you like / don’t like / would like.
