What is Unicodia ?
This is a replacement for Windows Character Map.
- In Windows 10/11 - all characters of Unicode 15 (no named sequences right now).
- In Windows 7 - all characters of Base Multilingual Plane, plus Phoenixian, Aramaic and Brahmi, as scripts of high importance. I’ll also support Old Gothic, just because it looks really “gothic”.
- Shows if the character is supported in your system, and if so - which font.
- Copy character codes in HTML, UTF-8 and UTF-16.
- Simple search.
- Little emoji reference.
- A few words on every script. Unicodia is just fun to read.
- Chinese / Japanese / Korean are collapsed initially. Otherwise point somewhere, and 75% you hit an ideograph.
- Free / libre (except license for two fonts, see About).
Said about Unicodia as an alternative
Brandon Propst
I like Unicodia as an alternative because it provides definitions for symbols.
Comments and Reviews
I appreciate this Windows option as an alternative to Linux's Character Map.
Best app that I found, so far.
