Apple’s newest iPhone software, iOS 16.4, is here, meaning you can download the update now if you haven’t yet. If you already installed iOS 16.4, however, you might’ve noticed your iPhone got some new features, bug fixes and a fresh collection of emoji to try out.
The new emoji include a shaking-head smiley, animals like a donkey, moose and a goose, and additional heart colors, including plain pink and light blue. The plain pink heart has been a long-sought emoji, according to Emojipedia, which named it one of the site’s top emoji requests in 2015. Last year’s significant emoji drop in iOS 15.4 included a melting face, a biting lip and a pregnant man, with 37 new designs in total.
A moose, donkey and goose are some of the new emoji iPhone users might see soon.
EmojipediaEmojipedia said the new emoji came from Unicode’s September 2022 recommendation list, Emoji 15.0.
You can start using all the latest emoji and other new features, like voice isolation in phone calls, by downloading iOS 16.4 now.
