You Can Send Emojis from Apple Watch to iPhone

Awesome! I didn't think this was going to be possible and was wondering how it was going to prevent you from doing so without knowing if they had a watch or not.

Good news! It sends to the user and is animated and everything! Maybe this was common knowledge but I genuinely thought it wasn't 'compatible'.

There's even a shaka! I was hoping so. They animated directly within the message thread, too.

Nope. They are recognized as animated emojis.

Nope. They are recognized as animated emojis.

Apple is recognizing them as animated emojis on iOS, but they are gifs

If someone sends you an animated emoji from their watch can you save it and send it to other people from your phone?
