How to search for emojis with that have multiple words? Some emojis aren't found at all? #244

image this one should be face_with_open_eyes_and_hand_over_mouth

  1. how do i search for this? any - or _ would not give any results, or by concatenating the words: Nope :( image image image image

  2. so maybe i can only search by one word? what about over or mouth? Nope :( image image

  3. also, please consider implementing a show-shortname-on-hover functionality, like Slack. Otherwise, how would I ever learn what my favorite emojis are named? image

(PS: Screenshots are from Whatsapp Web, but I see the same result on https://moji-search.herokuapp.com)

I think it just depends on how each of those libraries has implemented search. Here's what happens in Slack (which uses the same data source):
