In honor of the emoji day which ritually falls every July 17, Apple unveils the flock of new thumbnails that will appear in iOS and all of its operating systems in the fall. As announced in the month of January, we will be entitled this year to a Ninja, a dodo (the extinct animal), a boomerang, a coin, the symbol of transgender equality, a piñata, a heart and lungs (the anatomical version), a Russian doll …
Among the other emojis who were not entitled to their representation, there will also be the snowman smile with a tear of joy, the snowman smile with false glasses and a false mustache, two people who embrace … In fact, the entire Emoji 13.0 list validated at the start of the year.
Many partners of the Unicode consortium wanted to integrate characters with protective masks, coronavirus requires. But adding emojis follows strict rules and their integration requires up to two years before being effective. You will have to be satisfied with the ninja … or Memojis: in iOS 14, they can indeed wear masks.
