If Mac users want to use Windows-style emoji in their system, they can achieve it in three ways: First, use third-party software such as iEmoji or Beeper to import multi-platform emoji styles with one click and support cross-application display; Second, download Windows emoji fonts by manually replacing the system font files and enable them in the font book, but there are certain risks and need to be backed up in advance; Third, use custom emoji packages or emoji screenshots directly in specific apps, such as Slack, Discord and other applications to support uploading or switching emoji themes. Different methods are suitable for different scenarios, and users can choose the most suitable solution according to their needs.

There are some differences in style between Windows and Mac. If you use Mac but prefer Windows-style emoji, you can actually achieve it through some methods. Although macOS itself only provides Apple-style emoticons by default, you can use Windows-like emoticons by downloading, installing, or third-party software.

Switch Emoji style with third-party apps

If you want to use emoji styles similar to Windows directly on your Mac, the easiest way is to use third-party software. Tools like iEmoji or Beeper allow you to load emojis on different platforms (including Windows) on your system.

• iEmoji supports one-click import of emoji fonts for multiple platforms
• Beeper is a cross-platform chat tool with built-in multi-platform emoji display options
• After installation, you usually need to restart the relevant application before it can take effect.

The advantage of this type of software is that it is simple to operate and is suitable for users who do not want to mess with system files.

Replace system font files (advanced)

If you don't mind a little "hands-on", you can also try manually replacing the emoji font file in macOS to display Windows-style emojis. This method involves replacing system files, which poses certain risks, so it is recommended to back up in advance.

1. Download emoji font files for Windows platform (such as Segoe UI Emoji)
2. Open Font Book on Mac and disable Apple Color Emoji fonts
3. Install and download Windows emoji fonts
4. Restart some applications or systems and take effect

It should be noted that not all applications support custom emoji fonts, and some apps may still display native styles.

Using Windows Emoji in a specific app

If you just want to see Windows-style emoji in a specific app (such as Discord, Slack, WeChat, etc.), some applications themselves support switching emoji themes or using custom packages.

For example:

• Slack allows you to upload custom emojis
• Discord has a community-made Windows emoji package available
• Although apps such as WeChat cannot directly change the system emoji, you can send screenshots in chat or use emoji instead.

This method is suitable for specific scenarios, without changing the system settings, and is relatively safe and easy to recover.

Basically that's it. You can choose the right method according to your needs: if you just try it out, it is most convenient to use a third-party app; if you pursue system-level unification, try font replacement; and just want to use Windows emoticons in a certain app, just find the corresponding support method.
