The Apple company joined the celebration of World Emoji Day by sharing some of the emoticons that will soon arrive in their devices. As you can see in the images, Apple will add later this year a set of emojis that will have people with different hairstyles and hair colours, to continue betting on diversity.
The images that were officially shared by Apple are part of the group of emojis that were previously approved by the Unicode Consortium, an entity in charge of approving which emojis come to light.
More than 70 emojis are added to the catalogue this 2018
According to the official statement from Apple, this year, more than 70 new emoji will arrive in the iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch and Mac as a software update. The new designs, based on the characters approved in Unicode 11.0, include even more hair options that, according to the Cupertino signature, serve to better represent people with red hair or greying or curly hair and even to represent those who they do not have hair.
The best thing is that the news will not only reach the emojis of people, but the update also brings new animals to the catalogue, among which are a kangaroo, a peacock, a parrot and a lobster. In addition, new emojis will also come to the food section, where we will see mango, lettuce, cupcake or mooncake.
"This year many more sports characters, symbols and other categories will be released, such as a new superhero, a softball, a Nazar amulet and the infinity symbol," says Apple.
At the moment we do not know the exact date on which the new emojis will be launched on the market, but it is expected that this will happen before the end of 2018.
