Keyboard update symbols

[sclarke624]

Is it just me? Got the keyboard update for my nexus 7. But in addition I seem to have acquired symbols in the suggested word bit. For instance if I type heart I get these three suggestions ♥ heart and hearts. Type nite and I get ♩ nite and ♪. Star ★ star and ☆. But can't find it referenced to anywhere or a list of symbols. Has anyone else got this. Anyone got a list of words and symbols.

You can now get emoji support on android. Here's how:

If you are using stock Google keyboard you can quick switch to your newly downloaded emoji keyboard by long pressing the space bar.

I've had that on my nexus 7 for ages illustrator Joe, this is something different I am seeing. It's on the Google English UK keyboard. Just curious. Keep finding more popping up ie flower ❀ and flowe . Re minds me of the symbols you can use on Facebook chat with the alt and number keys.

This seems tho be what I'm talking about, maybe it's always been there and I clicked something to sporting it into action.
