Apple’s iOS 15.4 update was recently released to the users. Apart from the Face ID mask in the new update, the other significant change is the new emoji. According to Apple, iOS 15.4 includes more than 37 new emoji, including faces, hand expressions, and household items. Users can also choose a different skin tone for each expression in the handshake emoji.
The new emoji include melting face, peeping-eyed face, tear-stopping face and more. According to Emojipedia, the iOS 15.4 beta contains seven new smiley emojis. There’s the melting face emoji, which could set the mood for all of us in the coming summer months, showing that we may all be grieving for global warming in some way or the other.
The ‘face with pecking eye’ emoji is also used when someone wants to look away from something frightening or embarrassing. This emoji can be used while reading some unwanted WhatsApp messages.
Added to These Awesome Emojis
Then there is the ‘face holding back tears’ emoji, which can convey various emotions. Especially when ‘Work From Home’ is finally coming to an end and 5-day Mandatory Office Attendance is a sign of a comeback. The new ‘Face with Diagonal Mouth’ can also express a similar emotion.
The ‘face with open eye and hand on the mouth’ is also new and more expressive than the previous design. It is also used to express shock and surprise. We think it will be handy when one looks at their investment portfolio these days.
Apple has also added a ‘dotted line face’ emoji that should be used to show something invisible. According to Emojipedia, it can also show depression and isolation. There is also a salute face emoji with the proper hand salute, which means a sign of respect.
The update also includes new hand gestures, including an emoji pointing the index finger at the viewer, as in the Uncle Sam poster. There is also an emoji where the hands are joined together in a heart shape. If you are bored of typing black, purple and red hearts in the comments, you can use this.
