Two human footprints, showing the outline of both feet, including all five toes. Typically shown as a staggered left-and-right pair, as if made while walking.

Designs vary in color: most use black or grey, while Google's are blue and Microsoft's are purple. Previous designs from Apple, Microsoft and Facebook were red.

This emoji predates the inclusion of emojis within Unicode. A single footprint was first added to early Japanese emoji keyboards by Docomo in 1999, soon followed by a pair of footprints by SoftBank in 2000.

Footprints was approved as part of Unicode 6.0 in 2010 and added to Emoji 1.0 in 2015.
