radio button
The Radio Button emoji represents a situation where you choose one option from several choices. It can be used to mean, 'I've decided on this one!'
It's the shape of a button you often see when taking surveys on websites or apps. Try using it when asking a friend what to choose, or to announce your own choice.
🔘
This emoji is taken directly from the 'radio button' of computer interfaces (UI). Unlike a checkbox (✅), which allows for multiple selections, it signifies that only one option can be chosen.
The name originates from old car radios where pressing one channel button would make the others pop out. Because of this core meaning of 'a single choice,' it's very effective for clearly showing the selected item in front of polls or survey lists.
