It’s not clear why the account has decided to change the facial features as well, but moving forward its emoticons will be saluting with the correct right arm, and as one commenter pointed out, the right-salute emoticon’s bicep is parallel to the ground, which represents another improvement on the sloppier angle of the left-arm salute version. So no, saluting kaomoji aren’t going away, they’re just being improved.

Quite where the Unicode 7.0 update leaves the Twitter account at is unclear, too. It makes perfect sense for most people under the age of 30 that someone made this music video for Beyonce’s “Drunk In Love” using emojis (and what the joke with the aubergine is): They’ve come to replace txt spk as the specifically fluid vernacular of youth. This is undoubtedly one of those issues where opinions of its importance split reliably along generational lines.

Since Unicode only specifies a character and not a font – like “smiling face”, rather than the actual look of the smiling face – Apple is free any time to convert one of its existing white faces to a different ethnicity (or it could, y’know, ignore Unicode and create its own extra faces). There’s a man in a suit levitating, fog, a weightlifter and lots and lots of directional arrows, but no new people.

Yet having looked through the full list of new characters, that doesn’t look to have happened. More than 4,000 people signed a petition in March asking Apple to add more people of colour to the emoji sets, and, in fairness, the company responded by agreeing that “there needs to be more diversity” and it would work with the Unicode Consortium on developing a greater range of characters for the 7.0 update. There are multiple white faces and characters of different ages and genders available, but only two people of colour: one brown-skinned man wearing a turban, and another who appears to be east Asian. While Apple’s emojis have been unified with Unicode’s since 2012 – meaning that an iPhone will render a Unicode emoji string as an iPhone emoji, and vice versa – they’ve also been singled out for a lack of diversity. While emoji have been around for years – they’re the basis of Microsoft Word’s Wingdings fonts, for instance – their recent popularity has been driven by Apple, which gives iPhone users their own brightly-coloured, characterful set featuring such favourites as “smiling pile of poop” and “dancing lady in red”.
