With Apple’s new emojis, representation matters

New emojis have arrived at iOS.

There is a new range of emojis arriving on your iPhone with the new iOS 14 update. More than 200 emojis are expected to be available for use within the next month. The emojis are a mixture of all new creations and modifications to the already existing one.

Perhaps the biggest change is the couples emoji. There is a more inclusive range of the couples icon brought about by the mix of skin tones.

There are three new smileys you can choose from; an exhaling face, a face with spiral eyes, and a face in the clouds.

With the hearts, there are two new ones; a heart on fire, and a mended heart.

One major interesting modification with the apple emojis is the gender options. iOS 14.5 is the first operating system to include a woman with a beard.
