History

Watermelon was added to Unicode in version 0.6. Like most emoji, it started in Japanese mobile carrier sets before being standardized so it renders consistently (with platform-specific art styles) across iOS, Android, and the web.

Platform Compatibility

Watermelon renders on all major platforms that support Unicode 0.6 and later, including iOS, Android, Windows, macOS, and the major browsers and chat apps. If it shows as a blank box or placeholder, the device’s font/OS is out of date rather than the emoji itself being unsupported.
