Your smartphone is about to get 72 new emojis and here's what they'll look like
Both Apple and Google will have to update their operating systems before the emojis can be used and this isn't likely to happen until later this year.
Apple is expected to unveil its new iOS 10 operating system on Monday 13th June at its yearly WWDC conference but this won't be ready for consumers until September.
Meanwhile Google's Android N has already be revealed but there's no official launch date for the new OS.
Amongst the new emojis iPhone and Android smartphone owners will be able to send later this year are 22 new \"Smileys and People\", including a face to represent rolling on the floor laughing, a nauseated face, a clown, a pregnant woman, a dancing man and a face palm.
There's also an emoji of someone taking a selfie, and a black heart symbol.
A gorilla, fox, deer, bat, rhinoceros, eagle, duck, owl, lizard, shark, shrimp, squid, and butterfly emoji have all been added to the \"Animals\" category.
Unicode 9 adds 18 new \"Food and Drink\" emoji, including a new crispy bacon symbol. A baguette, croissant, paella, falafel and green salad have also been added.
