You can use an Add Emojis to Documents from Google Workspace Marketplace to add emojis to your Google Sheets. Apart from Google Sheets, it also works with Google Slides and Google Docs. Here’s how to do it:

1. Go to the download page of Add Emojis to Documents on Google Workspace Marketplace. Press Install.

2. Now you will see a popup. Press “Continue” on it.

3. Choose your Gmail account with which you want to connect the app.

5. Now open the Google Sheet where you want to insert emojis. Click “Extensions” from the top bar.

6. Select “Add Emojis to Documents” and press “Add Emojis Keyboard.”
