Screen readers do handle emojis in this way, at least the Google assistant while I'm driving does.

- shakna 7y agoGoogle Assistant is very far from most of the common screenreaders. Both in quality (better) and capability (worse). JAWS has been known to crash when handed some unicode sequences. So now it simply ignores them and says nothing. The alternatives tend to be worse than JAWS. Such as spelling out the codepoints in hex, or crashing before it gets anywhere near the unicode it doesn't understand.
