Demoji is a Chrome extension developed by Ben Buchanan. It falls under the category of Browsers and is classified as an Add-ons & Tools subcategory. This free extension allows users to display a text description or emoji next to emoji images. However, it does not process free-text emoji.

By default, Demoji runs on all sites, but this can be changed in the extension settings. The main purpose of this extension is to provide a clearer understanding of emoji images by adding text descriptions. This can be helpful when the graphic representation of an emoji is hard to see or understand.

It is important to note that Demoji only expands custom emoji images and does not change emoji within general text or inside buttons. However, it will attempt to add a title to emoji buttons.

Please be aware that not all emoji will be affected by Demoji. It only works when the element is an image, the image is identified as an emoji, and a text alternative is provided or can be reliably matched to an emoji name. This means that on some sites, Demoji may not have any effect due to the lack of alternative descriptions, unreliable identification of intended emoji, or the emoji being part of a text string.

The latest version of Demojiincludes updates to tune the frequency of updates, quieter logs, and excludes buttons from demoji conversion. However, a title is added to buttons if none exists. Previous versions, 1.0.0, andalso introduced various improvements and features.

Overall, Demoji is a useful Chrome extension for those who prefer having text descriptions alongside emoji images to enhance their understanding and communication.
