Every version of Unicode brings a new set of emojis that you can use on your devices. While you can convey whatever you wish to say using just text, these emojis allow you to add a flare of expressions in your conversations. For instance, if you’ve just passed an exam with flying colors, you can use a smiling emoji to express to the others that you’re happy.
In the current Unicode that you use on your devices, you’ve got tons of those to send to your friends and family. Ranging from various faces to flags to foods, almost every item under the sun is covered in these emojis to help you express how exactly you feel when you’re texting someone.
A new version of Unicode is about to come and its emojis are available already. You can have these emojis downloaded on your devices to then send them to your loving ones.

8. All the Unicode 9 emojis should now be saved in your Notes. Now, whenever you want to send someone any of these emojis, simply open this note, tap and hold on the emoji you wish to send, and tap Copy. Then, go back to your favorite messenger and paste the emoji.
