According to a document released by Unicode Consortium – the guys accountable for the emoji common – the team is currently thinking about 38 new emoji characters as part of an update to the existing collection. These new emoji characters have been drawn up in response to establishing browse patterns for pictures on Google, in addition to some that have been requested by fans across the globe. “These signs are thought about for incorporation into Unicode for reasons such as compatibility usage, prominent requests from on the internet communities, as well as filling the spaces in the existing set of Unicode emoji.”
