The day is finally here when Apple has shipped the final and stable release of iOS 26.4. From AI Playlist Playground to Liquid Glass tweaks, eligible iPhones have gotten a much-needed feature drop and system overhaul. Along with these changes and fixes, numerous new Apple keyboard emojis are also live with this final release.
List of New iOS 26.4 Emojis
The Unicode Consortium has approved 8 new emojis for iOS 26.4. These are now live for all users, starting from the iPhone 11 to the all-new iPhone 17e. The new emojis include the following:
- Orca
- Trombone
- Ballet Dancer
- Distorted Face
- Fight Cloud
- Hairy Creature
- Treasure Chest
- Landslide
An important thing to note here is that these emojis officially support cross-platform integration. This means that not only can they be shared between iPhones, but users will also be able to chat with Android and PC users using the same emojis. They will also reflect with the latest release of MacOS and iPadOS.
That said, with the new iOS 26.4 emojis live, the consortium has already started working on emojis for iOS 26.7. They have been listed on the Unicode 18.0 database and include leftward and rightward thumb gestures, a meteor, a smiley face with squinting eyes, an eraser and a lot more.
