Hassle-free typing of Unicode symbols without switching apps and tedious copy-pasting: Just type them directly from your keyboard!

Unicode Keyboard is free, comes without ads and does not require unnecessary permissions.

This app is not a lookup table, so if you don’t know the code point of the symbol you want to type, this app won’t be of much help for you. It works fine if you know your Unicode symbols by heart, though.

Important, especially for users from Myanmar: This app does not come with any fonts. In order to display certain characters, the underlying app you’re typing in needs to support displaying these characters. You still can access e.g. Myanmar letters, but this app cannot control how the letters will appear on screen.

I LOVE THIS so i gave it an 5/5! 

Does a simple job and does it well. If I memorise the codepoint for the char I want, I can punch it into Unicode Keyboard and get that char any time.

Exactly what I was looking for and works like a dream! After reading dozens of click-bait know-nothing blog posts advocating variations on "press alt" or sagely describing non-existent GBoard options I finally found this. Assuming you know what a codepoints and hexadecimal are this is probably what you are looking for too...
