New The AI tide at Freelo - a new era of modern collaboration

Emojis in text

When words are not enough, emojis show up. You can use them in any text field – whether it is a comment, a note, a task name, a To-Do list or a project.

Emoticons are also useful when you need to highlight or distinguish important tasks or the entire project. They can also perfectly indicate the priority of a task.

You can add colorful emojis to the text field via the Emoji icon bar. (It works globally, not just in Freelo).

TIP: How to display emoji bar on Mac OS and Windows?Mac OS – Control + Command ⌘ + Space.

Example of use of emojis.

How to use emoticons when writing a comment.

Practical use cases

  • Colour-coded projects – add an emoji at the start of a project name to visually distinguish work areas at a glance. For example 🔴 for urgent projects, 🟢 for active ones or 🔵 for internal matters.
  • Task priority without extra text – instead of a text label, place an emoji before the task name: 🔥 for top priority or ⏳ for waiting tasks.
  • Quick reactions in comments – express feedback with a single emoji (👍, ✅, 🤔) instead of a full sentence, keeping discussions easy to scan.
  • Easy navigation in notifications – an emoji in the task name helps you identify the type of work directly from the bell or email notification.
  • Onboarding new team members – colour-coded projects reduce the time it takes a new colleague to find their way around the workspace.
