Copyright & Trademark Symbols FAQ
When do I use ™ versus ®?
™ claims a mark without registration; ® asserts a registered one — and using ® on an unregistered mark is unlawful in many places. The characters are free; the claims are not. This page supplies only the characters.
Why does it look different on my friend’s phone?
Every platform draws Unicode characters with its own fonts, so the same character can look subtly (or wildly) different between devices. The character you copy is identical everywhere; only the drawing changes.
