    Is Webview an app? If so, it may not support the Emoji font. Or, if you're talking about typing in a web page, the same maybe true. The iPhone Emoji font frequently shows up as garbage characters on other phones. It sound as if it's being converted to the Symbol font in whatever your trying to use it. Avoid use of the Emoji font unless you are communicating with other iOS devices.
