Apple also updated its headphone model to reflect the AirPods Max. The company confirmed that the new emojis would be available for preview later in the week and would land on phones during a spring software update. Apple has made inclusivity a key feature of its emoji updates in recent years.
Last year’s update included a hearing aid and guide dog, as well as cultural references such as a piñata or a matryoshka doll.

Although Unicode is responsible for emojis rather than Apple, the brand still makes suggestions before each update, based upon public demand.

Apple submitted a proposal to Unicode Consortium last year for more disability-themed Emoji. A new guide dog, an hearing aid-equipped ear, wheelchairs, prosthetic arms and legs will all be included in the emoji keyboard. Apple values celebrating diversity in all forms and these new options fill a large gap in the emoji keyboard.
There are many other emoji categories that have exciting updates. These include a smiley face to yawning, a one piece swimsuit, and new food items like butter, garlic, and waffles.
