Apple has previewed the new emojis coming to iPhones this fall, and it features a banjo, a parachuting man, a yawning face, and a variety of new emojis to boost disability representation.
Apple is planning to roll out 59 new emojis this fall, and they’ve given us a sneak peek of a one-piece swimsuit, waffles, butter, a yo-yo, and more. Additionally, the company has focused on disability representation by adding in emojis like a guide dog, a hearing aid, prosthetic limbs, wheelchairs, and more.
“Celebrating diversity in all its many forms is integral to Apple’s values and these new options help fill a significant gap in the emoji keyboard,” Apple explains in a statement.
