Check out these 8 new emojis coming with iOS 26, here's when they'll drop on iPhones

Emoji lovers, buckle up, the Unicode Consortium has just dropped a brand-new batch of emojis under Unicode 17.0, and Apple fans are in for a ride. The upcoming iOS 26 update is expected to include 8 new characters that range from bizarre to kinda genius. From a fluffy 'Hairy Creature' to a 'Distorted Face' that screams internal panic, these emojis are bringing some much-needed spice to our keyboards. 8 new emojis are coming for your screens, and they are wild And yes, the release was timed perfectly with World Emoji Day, because why not flex new pixels on the most emoji-obsessed day of the year? Here's what you'll be getting The Unicode 17.0 set includes: Apple Core Ballet Dancers Distorted Face Fight Cloud Hairy Creature Orca Trombone Treasure Chest Basically, it's giving chaotic, aesthetic, and totally memeable energy. That 'Fight Cloud'? Already destined to replace the passive-aggressive '😤' in your family group chat. And the 'Distorted Face'? Perfect for every time Mercury goes retrograde and ruins your life. When will these emojis drop on iPhones? While the emojis are officially approved, don't expect them to show up on your phone immediately. Apple likes to do its own thing, translating these into their unique emoji style and slipping them into iOS updates whenever they feel like it. Sources say these icons could appear in the initial iOS 26 rollout. But if history repeats itself, like with Unicode 16.0 (which only showed up on iPhones in iOS 18.4, months later), you might be waiting until a later update like iOS 26.1 or 26.2. Patience is a virtue… or just go make your own with Genmoji. Android users, you're getting them too Android is not missing the party. Google might roll out these newbies with the Android 16 QPR1 update. Pixel fam, keep your eyes peeled. Until then, get your group chats ready. Emoji chaos is about to begin.
