Apple has announced that iOS 10 will bring over 100 new gender diverse emoji.
More than one hundred new and redesigned emoji characters will be available to iPhone and iPad users this Fall with iOS 10. This exciting update brings more gender options to existing characters, including new female athletes and professionals, adds beautiful redesigns of popular emoji, a new rainbow flag and more family options.
Apple says that it is working closely with the Unicode Consortium to ensure that popular emoji characters reflect the diversity of people everywhere.
Take a look at a few of the new emoji below. Note the use of a water gun in place of a real gun.

It takes one to know one so you first. If Apple is trying to ripoff emojis, then there would be some of them alone that would bare some resemblance instead of being exactly like it (aka a clone) and no, more like so-called trash!
After you and again, missed about what I meant. There's a difference between ripping off something because of some things trying to sound like it's being original and being exactly like it which is just a clone. At least the emojis still try to stick to their own style they have been, but again, who cares?
Just because you say what you think isn't a fact. How does that make me stupid when you don't understand the difference between facts and opinions? The emojis are smarter than you think.
