I'm using it for icons on buttons in a desktop app so I need to easily see the icons zoomed out and the decimal number. Also the ability to filter out large groups of glyphs is making it faster to find the icon I want

Easy to use and fits my needs--great free app!

The character map has proven incredibly useful and I use it almost on a daily basis. The Copy feature is great. I haven't really had a use for the filter.
If it's possible to throw down some feature requests:
- some way to mark your favorites.
- A way to search the metadata (if I type music, have it highlight the Enum: MusicInfo on a font, etc)
- A new title card(seriously, call me.)

Forget the Desktop Character Map app, this is the app to get. Most comprehensive and easy to use. It gets my whole 5-Stars, if I had more I will give it.
My only wish now is that they add option so save some favorite characters I use most often in a fav list so I can easily reach them instead of searching all over again each time.

Use this app once, throw away Windows' native character map forever!

Love, love, love this app. Yet another great example of the power and simplicity of the Modern UI. I've already discovered so many great symbols that I didn't know were part of the Segoe UI font family. Kudos to Vertigo! REQUEST: the filter function is cool but I'm wondering if a search could be implemented (e.g., searching for "copyright" or "em-dash," etc.).

Using these icons all the time. Great tool

This is a well needed addition to the Windows Store! It provides quick access to find hex values for some of those hard to find Characters.
Thanks Vertigo! Awesome App!
