SVP of Android promises that new emoji for Android are on their way
Apparently when Apple released iOS 9.1, it released a whole new batch of emojis that Apple users were very happy to have, and Android users were apparently unhappy not having, which has kicked the Android team over at Google into gear. It seems unusual that emojis would matter that much, but the newly appointed Senior Vice President of Android, Hiroshi Lockheimer, has taken to Twitter to officially say that they are working on new emoji for Android.
So I have a feeling y’all want new emojis? a) Thanks for the feedback, b) We’re on it, and c) Sorry!

Again, it seems unusual that Google would need to apologize for a lack of emojis (despite the fact there are already so many), but there it is. Lockheimer didn’t suggest what kind of timeframe we should be expecting these emojis to be available in, but presumably the team is working hard to fill in all the gaps in our emoji vocabulary.
What do you think about getting new emoji for Android? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below.
