117 New Emoji Are On The Way to Apple Platforms Later This Year

The Unicode Consortium on Wednesday announced 117 new emoji that are coming to iOS, macOS, and other device platforms later this year.

Additions include Bubble Tea, Smiling Face With Tear, bottle-feeding parents and the Transgender Flag. Also on the list are gender-inclusive options, such as “Mx Claus,” a man with a veil, and a woman in a tuxedo. A bell pepper, a tamale, and flatbread are among the new food emoji.

A full list of Unicode’s emoji additions, including previews, was published by Emojipedia. While the new emoji were represented as glossy versions such as used by Apple. the final versions will likely be reproduced in a different style.

Apple should add the emoji in an update to its iOS, macOS, iPadOS, and watchOS operating systems sometime later this year.
