How it works

The sound emoji come as four speakers: πŸ”ˆ Speaker low volume, πŸ”‰ medium, πŸ”Š high and πŸ”‡ Muted speaker. CLDR, Unicode’s list of search words, files 13 emoji under sound, and Unicode’s note on πŸ”Š is the one word sound.

Read the full guide

Volume up, volume down

πŸ”ˆ, πŸ”‰ and πŸ”Š are the three emoji CLDR files under volume, so each is a volume emoji. Unicode’s character names count the waves: Speaker, Speaker with one sound wave, Speaker with three sound waves, and none with two. For a volume up emoji or a sound up emoji take πŸ”Š, the speaker high volume emoji, or the combo Turn it up.

No sound, no audio, no volume

πŸ”‡ is the no sound emoji: Unicode’s character name for it is Speaker with cancellation stroke. With no emoji filed under audio, it is the no sound symbol, the no audio symbol and the no volume symbol alike. πŸ”• Bell with slash is the only other emoji under both mute and sound.

Questions and answers

Which emoji means sound on?

πŸ”Š, by Unicode’s note. Two plain characters carry the notes sound on and sound off, Bullhorn with sound waves, U+1F56C, and Bullhorn, U+1F56B. They are not emoji and may show as empty boxes, so neither has a tile here.

Is there a noise emoji or a loud noise emoji?

CLDR has no search word noise. It files two emoji under loud, πŸ”Š and πŸ“’ Loudspeaker, and by Wiktionary noise is sound that is usually unwanted or unpleasant. The combo Loud noise puts πŸ’₯ beside πŸ”Š.

Is there a speaker Alt code, or a speaker symbol on a keyboard?

No Alt code: code page 437 has no speaker and U+1F508 sits above 65,535, the top decimal Alt number. For a speaker symbol in text to copy and paste, []<)) is typed with plain keys.

Are there emoticons with sound?

None that plays: an emoticon is a few typed characters and carries no audio. These draw the sound: []<))) is a speaker at high volume, and []<x is an emoticon for mute, sound off.

How this list was compiled: Built on 2026-10-09 from sources read that day. The emoji, their names, code points and Emoji version numbers are from the Unicode emoji list, version 18.0 (https://www.unicode.org/Public/18.0.0/emoji/emoji-test.txt); names are the CLDR short names printed in that file. Search words are from the CLDR English annotations (https://github.com/unicode-org/cldr/blob/main/common/annotations/en.xml and https://github.com/unicode-org/cldr/blob/main/common/annotationsDerived/en.xml). Speaker low volume is U+1F508, Emoji 0.7, in the group Objects, subgroup sound, between Muted speaker (U+1F507, Emoji 1.0) and Speaker medium volume (U+1F509, Emoji 1.0); Speaker high volume is U+1F50A, Emoji 0.6. The subgroup holds nine emoji and all nine are tiles here. CLDR files 13 emoji under sound (eight of the nine, without Postal horn, plus Ear, Musical note, Musical notes, Microphone and Headphone), four under speaker, three under volume, two under loud and three under mute; Muted speaker and Bell with slash are the two under both mute and sound. No emoji is filed under noise or audio. Character names are from UnicodeData.txt, version 18.0.0 (https://www.unicode.org/Public/18.0.0/ucd/UnicodeData.txt): U+1F508 is named Speaker, U+1F507 Speaker with cancellation stroke, U+1F509 Speaker with one sound wave and U+1F50A Speaker with three sound waves; no name holds two sound waves.

Code page 437, which the old Alt codes follow, has no speaker (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Code_page_437). That some apps take decimal Alt numbers up to 65,535 and turn a hexadecimal number into its character with Alt+X is from Wikipedia, Alt code and Unicode input (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alt_code, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unicode_input).
