About this emoji

☹️ Frowning Face is an emoji in the Smileys & Emotion group, face concerned subgroup, first released in Emoji 0.7 (2014). Emoji 0.7 is the label Unicode gives to characters that became emoji with Unicode 7.0 in 2014, before emoji had version numbers of their own.

CLDR, the Unicode project that supplies emoji names in many languages, gives it the English keywords face, frown, frowning and sad; that is what emoji keyboards match when you search.

It is the character ☹ (U+2639 WHITE FROWNING FACE) followed by the variation selector U+FE0F, which asks for the colourful emoji style. Without the selector, many systems show a plain text symbol instead.
