Here are all of the new emoji coming to your iPhone
Apple sent out the first iOS 9.1 beta today, and it includes a bumper crop of new emoji characters. However, another big release is the controversial “middle finger” emoji. As such, the beta releases of iOS 9 and watchOS 2 are not quite ready for consumer use and have the following unfortunate side-effects including app crashes, device instability and reduced battery life.
New faces include: upside down face, money mouth face, nerd, rolling eyes, hug, and thinker – all new ways to text your crush how you really feel.
Apple’s new middle-finger emoji, plus Microsoft’s, WhatsApp’s, and EmojiOne’s versions, as collected by Emojipedia. Just when you thought we’d reached peak emoji, more are on the way for Apple heads everywhere.
We’ll also be getting a block of cheese, an uncorked bottle of Champagne, a bag of movie theater popcorn, and a crab.
Below this article we’ve embedded a video from Adrianisen showing a review of the iPhone 4S running the iOS 9.1 beta.
The Next Web reported almost every category had new emojis.
“This is a pre-release version of iOS 9.1 for iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch”, Apple said.
By using the following guide, you’ll be able to install iOS 9 GM (Gold Master) or iOS 9.1 beta 1 without having to shell out $99 for the Apple developer account and UDID registration. The final hope, now, is that Apple will ultimately decide to keep it all the new emoji additions in the public release of iOS 9.1.
Users enrolled in the Apple Beta Software Program can get this update by going into Settings General Software Update.
