Having become central to our mobile interactions, the emoji is reinventing itself with eight new models to come. Regularly, Unicode Consortium, which is responsible for validating the presence or not of an emoji on our smartphones, adds new emojis to its catalog. These new features allow us to express ever more emotions, sensations and ideas through our keyboards.
Among them, a face emoji with dark circles under the eyes illustrating exhaustion, lack of sleep and which will be found in operating systems under the keywords “tired”, “sleepy” and “exhausted”. There are also 7 objects: a fingerprint; a tree without leaves; radish ; a harp ; a shovel ; a splash and finally a flag (that of the island of Serq) which has not yet been revealed to him.
They can still be modified
These are still in beta testing and aren’t expected to appear on our phones for a while. Their official presentation will take place, like every year, in July. This is currently a preview, emojis may be subject to change. What’s more, once validated, Apple, Microsoft, Android and others will each take the time to deliver their own emoji design.
We do not know when the final version will be published, however we can expect to see them released at the beginning of 2025. On iPhone, we should see them appear in March 2025, at the same time as iOS 18.4. In comparison, the emojis revealed last year that included a nodding face, a refuting face, a phoenix, a broken chain, a mushroom and a lime officially appeared on our devices in March 2024, with iOS 17.4 for iPhone.
