How do I Make a Heart Symbol with my Keyboard

June 1, 2009

“How do people make those cool little heart symbols on their keyboards?”

To make a little heart with your keyboard enter ♥  you will see a cute little heart like this ♥.

Another way you can make a hearts symbol is by using the ALT key and your numeric keypad together, that’s the number keypads on the right hand side of your keyboard not the numbers on top of your keyboard. Press the ALT key and the number 3 key at the same time (ALT + 3) to get the same heart symbol. Let me try it right now, ♥. There it worked like a charm, much faster than the other method I showed above ♥ this is kinda fun ♥.

Some other fun ALT key symbols:

ALT + 1 = ☺
ALT + 2 = ☻
ALT + 3 = ♥
ALT + 4 = ♦
ALT + 5 = ♣
ALT + 6 = ♠
ALT + 7 = •
ALT + 8 = ◘
ALT + 9 = ○

ALT + 14 = ♫ Musical Note
ALT + 15 = ☼ Sunshine Symbol
ALT + 0169 = © Copyright Symbol
ALT + 0153 = ™ Trademark Symbol
ALT + 0174 = ® Registered Symbol

My boyfriend sends hearts through texting using the ‘less than’ symbol and 3, but on my touch phone that’s what it shows up as (not very romantic). When I do it (<3) he sees a heart on his screen. How come I can't see a heart – even tho I can send one?

So many out there are asking how to make heart symbol (and the others) on their laptop that has no separate keypad. The answer is you need to also use that special “Fn” key in the sequence to produce the heart, which temporarily engages the keypad (overlay).
Example, on a Toshiba laptop, the Fn key can be found in the lower left (or other places) between the left-control key and left-alt key. The shadow keypad digits can be found on the user-facing edge of the letters keys: [KP = keypad digit]
M -> KP0, J -> KP1, K -> KP2, L -> KP3, U -> KP4,
I -> KP5, O -> KP6, 7 -> KP7, 8 -> KP8, 9 -> KP 9
The order is important! Hold down the Fn key, then add the Alt key, then tap the keypad digit you want to push: Fn + Alt + L
The Fn access they KP3 that’s on the L key: ♥
(the heart appears once you release the Alt key)
If you want to put 3 hearts in a row, Hold down the Fn key, add Alt key, tap L, release Alt (keep holding Fn!) (the first heart appears), re-add Alt key, tap L, release Alt key (the second heart appears), re-add Alt key, tap L, release Alt key (the third heart appears), release Fn key: ♥♥♥
Happy, Happy, Joy, Joy – non-keypad equipped laptop users can create hearts from their keyboard too!! :)
oh wait!! that should be: ☺
Fn + Alt + J to make ☺

Happy2Help November 10, 2012 at 2:28 am

One other note, (for a few of the symbols) it CAN be helpful to remember which Letter key to push by how the letter relates to the symbol produced:
Smiley = Joy -> Fn + Alt + J -> ☺
Heart = Love -> Fn + Alt + L -> ♥

Kristina November 16, 2012 at 4:27 pm

It does work :D You just copy & paste the heart ^.^

gabby November 26, 2012 at 3:05 pm
