What new emojis are included in iOS 16.4? All 21 revealed

A shaking face, jellyfish and a pink heart are among the 21 new emojis that Apple has introduced with the new iOS 16.4 update.

Released on Monday, the new emoji included more animals and additional hearts in multiple colours.

According to Emojipedia, the pink heart has been a popular request for quite some time along with the Light Blue Heart and Grey Heart.

Last year, Apple introduced 37 new emojis with its 15.4 update which included a pregnant man, biting lip and melting face.

Emojipedia said the new emoji came from Unicode’s September 2022 recommendation list, Emoji 15.0. 

These emoji designs were first previewed midway through February this year, within the first beta release of iOS 16.4.

This time there’s just one new smiley face and two new hand gestures that will allow you to give a proper high five and also comes in five skin tones.

Among the new emoji are a Khanda, the symbol of the Sikh faith, and a Wireless internet connection symbol.

This time around six new animal emojis have been added including a jellyfish, goose and donkey.

Unlike in last year’s Apple emoji update, none of the initially revealed emoji designs have undergone revisions ahead of their official release today.

Last year, the Troll emoji was revised during the beta period, while previous beta testing periods featured revisions (or attempted revisions) to the 🥯 Bagel and 🍑 Peach emojis.
