Hi PH! 👋 I’m a developer, designer and writer and looking for the correct characters has always been a mess. The macOS character view is okay, but I still ended up googling the correct unicode characters. That’s why we made Glyphfinder. To make it the best glyph search out there we manually tagged 34.000 characters. You can search for words, categories, look-alikes or even colors – you can’t do it wrong. We put together a few good examples on the site. Aaand it’s available for macOS *and* Windows, how cool is that? 🤓 Let me know what you think! Hans

@hanspagel Congrats on the launch! This looks really good! Curious to know are both native apps or Electron?

@iamtekeste it’s Vue.js & Electron and we use a native library to read out the keyboard layout to show the correct keyboard shortcuts for characters ❤️

@hanspagel Awesome! I just bought it! If you are accepting feature requests, I was expecting clicking on a glyph to copy it to the clipboard. My favorite part is the look alike search! ❤️

@iamtekeste 🙌 you can double-click, press Enter or Command + C (macOS) / Ctrl + C (Windows)

@hanspagel Alright, you guys got the best UX! Pressing Enter will work for me!

Great app. I like the design! Would be nice to have the option to display it in the macOS menu bar instead of letting it sit in the dock all the time.

@emmanuel_valverde_ramos1 definitely considering to build a Linux version!

Super handy tool! Some ideas of potential features would be a keyboard shortcut to display the window, and have it know what monitor you are on when you request the app to open. Right now it will always open in the middle of the main display.

Awesome idea, awesome product! One thing: I do like such apps to appear in the Menu Bar raather than in the Dock. Like Rightfont for example. Easy access! And if you add "Always on top" and "open with shortcut" it will be just a killer together with Figma.

@muuvmuuv yes! That’s the #1 requested feature. We’ll add this in the next days!

This looks great, especially for PC... I hate emojis on Windows. Does one license cover me for my Mac at work and PC at home, or would I need to choose "2 devices" from the buying options? FWIW, I never use the computers concurrently.

@alexcue thanks! Yes, that’s two devices so you’ll need the license for "2 devices". We check the license only once (on activation). We don’t check if someone else is currently using the same license. Hope that helps!
