Android Central Question

Does the default Samsung gallery app allow you to use emojis when naming your albums/groups? When you create a new album or group to organize your pictures, and it asks you to name it, you can't use most emojis. It says
"can't paste due to unsupported character. "
I would understand if it just doesn't allow for them to be in the title, but it'll let you use the heart emoji and no others I could find.

I have a Samsung Galaxy S21+ 5g Android Version 11.
 
When you make an album, you are creating a new folder with its own file path in your storage, and the album name becomes the folder name. Basic computer protocol is why emojies are not possible, because those special characters can have specific meaning in pathway structures. Using them would make things extremely unorganized at best, if not cause actual problems that hurt system integrity.
