Emoji Recently Added, v12.0

Index & Help | Images & Rights | Spec | Proposing Additions

The following emoji characters and sequences have been added to this version of Unicode Emoji. Platforms are included where images have been made available (however, the images may be development versions). The skin-tone variants are not shown, but are listed in the counts at the end.

The characters were based on proposals received by the Unicode Consortium, reviewed by the Unicode Emoji Subcommittee, and selected on the basis of the Emoji Selection Factors in Submitting Emoji Proposals. That page also describes the Process and Timeline for proposals.

Background

The count of new variants is in the Other Keywords column, such as “➕ 5 variants”. The abbreviations are documented in Emoji Counts Key.

When looking at the linked proposals for candidates or accepted characters it is important to keep two points in mind:

1. New proposals must follow the form in Submitting Emoji Proposals. This form may have changed since earlier proposals were submitted.
2. The UTC may accept a proposal for reasons other than those stated in the proposal, and does not necessarily endorse or consider relevant all of the proposed reasons.

While these charts use a particular version of the Unicode Emoji data files, the images and format may be updated at any time. For any production usage, consult those data files.
