The future holds exciting times for Apple users: you will soon have multi-racial emojis on your phone. If you have been stressing about not having a black Santa come Christmas, your woes are over.
Need a princess who doesn’t resemble the majority of the ones at Disney? It’s simple.
Any human icon can get a new skin tone if the user taps and holds the character.
The skin tones now come in six shades and “are based on five tones in the Fitzpatrick scale, a dermatology standard adopted by the Unicode Consortium”. That may very well be, but I still think the yellow is a bit awkward.
There are also the additions of same-sex couples and couples without children, and South Africans can now elate in the fact that there is a South African flag.
The emojis are available with Apple’s second OS X 10.10.3 and iOS 8.3 beta updates.
