Apple Just Released 190 New Emojis And They're Awesome

The new iOS 11.1 was just released last week, bringing on a fresh batch of emojis to grace our screens and conversations (to get these new emojis on your phone don’t forget to update your software). Emojipedia, the world’s largest encyclopedia for emojis (it’s crazy that we even have one), has been covering Apple’s emoji updates through the year, so these emojis come with a lot of build up and expectation. People really care about their emojis okay?

There are so many new options ranging from different types of food, flags, facial expressions, wizards, mermans, hats, gloves and body parts, that’s hard to think of something that can’t be said with emojis. You could write a novel with them. Some of these can also be modified according to your gender, sexual orientation and race, giving you even more options when it comes to how you want to express yourself.
