You don't need to go to the emoji store. For a windows computer/keyboard, just click next to where you want to add an emoji and click the windows icon on the keyboard and the period. This is useful for adding emojis on many platforms. This might be a new feature, not sure.

I think the point of utilizing that website was because you can quickly and easily search the type of emoji you are looking for and it pops up, easy to copy/paste. Just ease of search when you're trying to find creative options. Theres a lot of emojis out there. lol

Thanks for your suggestions, Scott. I have used colors for folders but was unaware of emojis. I'm going to look over my Google Drive folders and be more systematic using your tips.

Only downside to consider with adding emojis is that if you are using backup and sync, it will change the file extension for all files and folders within a folder with an emoji. This can lead to broken links and cause some issues with live linked files not liking the emoji code. Waiting for custom icon feature with google drive that does not require adding emojis. Will probably wait forever... :(

now when you say Google share do u mean if you're creating a share document for others to use like in a training room with multiple trainers, new to using this for work, always used office but they removed it, so I'm getting caught up with Google drive on my work computer & is there any way to change the background color to your Google drive on desktop.

PRO TIP: On a Mac, hold down the Control, Command and Space bar at the same time and an emoji menu will pop up. Only issue with using emojis is that they cause problems for IFTTT users. MY DRIVE TIP: I put important "top level" folder titles in brackets like this [WORK] That way, those folders always appear at the very top of Drive.
