keycap asterisk
A keycap-style emoji displaying the asterisk symbol.
An emoji that presents the asterisk symbol "*" inside a keycap-style icon reminiscent of keyboard or phone buttons. Typically rendered as a white or gray square or circle with a raised edge, it draws attention to the symbol. Commonly used in telephone DTMF input, list markers, or extension dialing. It also serves as a wildcard or footnote symbol in programming, mathematics, and annotation contexts. Technically, the glyph is implemented by combining the base asterisk character with the COMBINING ENCLOSING KEYCAP code point or as a single pre-composed code point.
