iOS 10 and the new emojis: Goodbye gun, hello pride flag

emoji ios 10 new iphone

Apple has introduced New Emojis in iOS 10 Developer Betas, so we will see them in full in the final, free and public version in mid-September. Do you want to know what changes they have made and what emoticons they have included? Very attentive, because they will not leave anyone indifferent.

iOS 10 brings more egalitarian and less violent emojis

First of all, I have to say that they have started a redesign of them. They are the same as always, but have a slightly more vivid and attractive color. Regarding some changes on those that already were and those that we already had, I do not know if they will remember that collection of signatures for Apple to withdraw the emoji gun, well, it has had its fruits. There will be a gun, but it will be green and clearly made of water, not a real one. It is the first step to remove weapons from smartphones and iPhones.

Have been introduced over 100 new emojis of all kinds. To begin with, we will highlight the rainbow flag that is used as a symbol of LGTB pride, a step that may be questioned by the most conservative and closed minds, but which seems very positive and very correct to me personally. On the other hand, we will also see more emojis of women in the section of athletes and others, where before only men appeared. And of course, you can change the color of the skin.

All these emojis are already being seen in the developer beta little by little, but will arrive definitively with the arrival of this great update to all users, in the fall. More specifically, it is believed that it will be released in mid-September, after the presentation of the iPhone 7, whose reservations could start on September 9.

We will wait for the final version to see how users react and what other emojis they include, if they still plan to add more.
