Rainbow

The colorful arc of a rainbow, as may appear after rain. Generally depicted as the left half of a full rainbow, showing six bands of color: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and violet.

Commonly used to express gay pride. Also commonly used to convey various feelings of love and happiness. See also 🏳️‍🌈 Rainbow Flag.

WhatsApp’s design shows the right arc of rainbow disappearing into a cloud. Facebook’s rainbow is displayed on a blue sky, as Apple, Samsung, and Twitter’s previously were. Google and Microsoft previously displayed full rainbow arcs with clouds.

Rainbow is goedgekeurd als onderdeel van Unicode 6.0 in 2010 onder de naam "Regenboog" en toegevoegd aan Emoji 1.0 in 2015.
