About Charmap

Charmap is an extremely small and simple Character Map application, from Arabic and Hebrew, from Javanese to Ethiopic Extended.

Note, of course, that your device's font may not support all known characters. Characters that your device cannot render will most likely show up as empty rectangles.

HTC Vision / T-Mobile G2 users: I assigned Charmap to one of my "Quick Keys" and it works pretty well. :)

Charmap is ad-free, Open Source, and licensed under the liberal MIT License. Don't hesitate to email me with comments or suggestions.

Search function for sure. I also wish the app wouldn't close after copying, but rather had a bar at the top or bottom where you could create a full word

Is it possible to make a keyboard out of it. A customizable keyboard with character users can choose to put on. Please continue to work on it.

Totally satisfied,ths app is very small nd its truely working.....guys u must try ths once..

by R####:

Would be better if it was easier to find letters, like if it was in alphabetical order for letters that look like As, Bs, Cs etc.

Took me a minute to find what I was looking for, could use a bit of a UI overhaul, but not gonna downgrade it since its still effective and simple.

G70%
by G####:

I love this app! Although could you add a feature where you could be able to select multiple chars at once? Perhaps type out your own phrase or emojii or whatever and copy it all at once? That'd be sweet.

P70%
by P####:

The unicode is too huge to scroll around looking for the character you want. Many characters are similar but have codepoints far from one another. The UI is nice, but no search by description feature makes it unusable for me. It no longer seems to be supported by the author, so someone may need to request the source from the author to add this.

This looks way too small on a tablet. Pls have bigger symbols, even better different sizes!

Very good but wish it returned you to prior app rather than home screen.

This input extension should be included with the Android OS it is so essential.

I normally wait until I've used an app for several months, or even as much as a year before giving it a review, but I have been so impressed with this app, I wanted to share it's merits with the Android Community. There are so many characters available, that I have always found exactly what I am looking for! Mathematical symbols, Greek letters, Geometric shapes, Currency symbols, Superscripts, Subscripts, the list goes on and on. Did I mention this app is free & requires no special permissions.

This is what exactly i want.

O70%
by O####:

Very good way to enter special characters. I kind request to the developer: make the app pin to the status bar so that it may be used without closing the editing application viz Quickoffice etc.

R70%
by R####:

Some obscure characters are just not displayed. I also wish I could create my own characters.

X70%
by X####:

This app is great, the only thing I think that would make it more efficient is to be able to copy multiple symbols and text to the clipboard at one. Also to be able to view the clipboard and edit it. It would nice if once you chose your symbols and the app closes is that it takes you back to your last used app; mine keeps taking me back to the home screen after I select a symbol.

by W####:

Selecting the Mathematical Alphanumeric Symbols page from the menu gets me Chinese ideograms, but this was a minor need, with a workaround.

X70%
by X####:

Others have said it better than I could. Just needs a search function. If it does, I have been unable to find it.

by X####:

I was looking for an app to do what Windows' charmap does when I found this. It is exactly what I wanted … and maybe more. It fits my needs better than any of the other apps I saw. I wish I could figure out how to link it to a keystroke. Make that possible and I will add another star!

Could this get any better? Amazing!

S70%

App only copies one letter when on others it starts a sentence please fix and I will gladly change my rating....other then that its the BEST symbol app for sure.

S70%
by S####:

Needs ability to copy more than one character at a time. Otherwise good app, would recommend.

Q70%
by Q####:

It looks like it *could* be exactly what I want, but I can't find fonts to support runic, etc. Can this app not include the required fonts to make it usable?

You guys need to develop a keyboard!!! This would be so much easier. Don't try to make it too "easy access" though, since it is a character map. Thank you guys for making the one and only good character map for android!!!
