With the iOS 15.4 update that was introduced today, Apple has added support for Emoji 14, introducing a selection of new emoji like melting face, biting lip, heart hands, and more. There are 37 new emoji and 75 skin tone additions in Emoji 14, resulting in a total of 112 characters.

You can NOT count the number of times I will send my girlfriend an empty battery emoji.

WHY does she not charge her phone until it's red.

Why God Whyyyyy?

This is probably going to be the most anticipated iOS update ever since IOS 15 has been released.

 

[Macintosh TV]

Hand over mouth has long been available. It's far from new to iOS 15.4 🤭

I really wish they had a better system for searching emojis. There's so many these days that it's hard to scroll through and the keywords don't always bring up the right ones.

The troll one should get a lot of use on MR… and I’m saying that in the most general terms and sense…

Meanwhile I don’t leave the house before it’s at 100% ?

Hahahah! That’s messed up 😝 but sadly you are right.

Gonna have to bite my lip on this one

Tapping the smiley emoji in the bottom left corner of the keyboard pulls up a pretty usable search box.

Why God Whyyyyy?

Because she's a girl? Women are complicated beings hard to understand, and usually do things the opposite way.

For example, to get to photos, some open the Camera, then tap on the last photo, then tap on All Photos...

There are mysteries not worth investigating, because the answer may not be logical at all.
It's better to just go along with them and focus on all the excellent qualities they have and we don't.

Going back to the main topic: How exciting! A Troll emoji at last! That's innovations at its best, what took it this long?

 

[Saturnine]

Ah good. Finally.

I can’t tell you how many times I’ve corroded my face and needed an emoji to convey what was happening.

This is definitely the update ever!

 

[topdrawer]

there is no emoji to express how i feel about his update.

 

[bollman]

I really wish they had a better system for searching emojis. There's so many these days that it's hard to scroll through and the keywords don't always bring up the right ones.

Why on Gods green earth would you spend time searching for an emoji??? Why not use the excellent functionality of language and just type the word or meaning of the emoji. Works great with all human beings I've tested it on!

 

[sniffies]

Soon emoji language will be like Chinese language:

If there is a word, there is a character




Apple's new ad: "There's an emoji for that!"

Why God Whyyyyy?

Same fight I have with my wife daily. I see it sitting on the counter and pick it up, battery in the red. I take it to a charger and she wanders around looking for it. “Where’s my phone?!” Where it should be!

Even worse is she always forgets to plug it in at night, the only time it’s not in her hand being used. I gave her my 12 pro max and it had 97% health in October. It’s now at 88% lol

 

[Superhappytree]

…..… So has 15.4 actually added anything useful? More importantly, has it fixed any of the endless amount of bugs that need addressing?

 

[darcyf]

Pretty sure MR posts these emoji updates just for the triggered engagement lol

 

[JosephAW]

A better question to ask is why does Apple require an iOS update to include new emojis?, I’m sure it’s not that way on androids. Should just be an app or phone carrier update that applies to all iOS versions.

 

[PhantomStar]

Didn't iOS 15.3 just released? Am I missing something or was that a typo in the article?

I hope you mean covered your face. If you've been corroding your face, you may need physical & mental health care. Don't want you to end up like this guy.

 

[Return Zero]

A few of these make me think "do we really need to keep adding more?"

Then I see the salute and I'm like "yep that's gonna be a staple"

 

[boss.king]

The melting face emoji is going to get a lot of use from me. I haven't quite worked out why or how yet, but it looks too good not to use.

People in the beta program are on iOS 15.3 and now going to iOS 15.4 with this latest upgrade.

All of my Apple devices are running beta software.

Still no vinyl record emoji? ?
