When can you get these new emoji?

A simple question that deserves a simple answer. Alas, you’re dealing with the internet so the answer is complex. One of the reasons why emoji are so popular is because they “just work” everywhere and real human effort goes into making this happen, which takes time

This update brings a long-awaited fix: every emoji with exposed skin can now accept a tone, a first since the feature was introduced in 2015.

You’ll know Emoji 17.0 has landed on your keyboard when you can change the tone of these last two remaining multi-person emoji.

Shorthand for conflict, be it heated debates, sports rivalries, or playful teasing. As an emoji, it has both a serious and humorous side: It offers itself up as an escalation when the moment calls for it but also can also illustrate the silliness of it all when miscommunication is bringing the drama

From literal rubble (landslides/avalanches) to metaphorical collapse (political scandals) the flexibility of this emoji is its strength. Use it in serious moments of natural disaster coverage or use it dramatically when everything feels like it’s falling apart.

The treasure chest is timeless: pirates, folklore, video games, even finance apps. It represents discovery, reward, and value—literal or metaphorical. As an emoji, it’s flexible enough for gaming victories, lost-and-found moments, or celebrating personal wins.

The orca is an icon. Revered in Indigenous cultures, beloved in pop culture. As apex predators they carry the weight of power, their complex social lives and hunting strategies make them a symbol of intelligence and their vulnerability to threats like pollution make them a powerful symbol for more

A familiar face for those of you who use Google’s Emoji Kitchen. Distorted faces show up everywhere from ancient masks to manga panels and face filters. This emoji captures discomfort, cringe, and awkward humor AlL In A singLE gLancE.

You hear it as soon as you see it. “Womp-womp-wooooomp” has entered the chat. Trombone emoji is part jazz band pride, part wet blanket, part ska pants.

Hairy creature is an emoji that feels both universal and oddly specific. From Yowie to Yeren, Mapinguari to Almasty, nearly every culture has a story about an elusive, shaggy being. It works as a stand-in for folklore, outsider status, or for those of us who are not a fan of shaving.
