They finally decided to give users over 150 new emojis including: new smiley faces, more hand symbols (yes, including the middle finger emoji), new animals, weather signs, foods and drinks, and objects and symbols. Keep on reading to see some funny, relatable, unexpected and significant emojis.
1. The Middle Finger
Yes! its finally here. Apple users have been anticipating this emojis for the longest, and our wish has finally been granted. Now, as it seems to be all fun and games with this emoji, it can (and will) be used for some serious context. This emoji is a great way to express anger towards people or certain situationsm and I can guarantee that everyone I know will be using this emoji. Disclaimer: This emoji has the potential to hurt feelings, so use it wisely. *inserts laughing emoji*
2.The Hot Dog, Burrito, and Taco
If you love food as much as I do, especially burritos, then these new food emojis must excite you too. I finally have a emoji to use for captions when I upload pictures of my burrito from Chipotle, or Moe's. Here are some other new food related emojis: taco, hotdog, cheese, and a bottle of champagne.
3. Eye in the Speech Bubble
This one happens to be a personal favorite. I'm sure we all have witnessed bullying right in front of our eyes. This emoji supports a movement to stand against bullying. It may also be significant to cyber bullying. Commenting on a post with this emoji can mean a lot more than you may think. "If you see something, say something."
4. Smiley Faces
In addition to the new emojis, we have more smileys which relate to the many facial expressions we make daily.
5. The Coffin
This one actually took me by surprise. This is one emoji I never expected to see.
6. Shopping Bags
Because who doesn't love shopping?!
7. Money Face Emoji
I really can't wait to use this on Pay Day.
If you are now interested in using these emojis, I must inform you that it is worth the update. There are also plenty more emojis any Apple user will love, so install the iOS 9.1 update, and explore the new world of emojis. *inserts a bunch of emojis here*
