Apple lists eight new Emoji 17.0 designs in this update.
The Unicode count includes new characters, variants, and standardized sequences.
Planned candidates only. Names and final inclusion may change.
Unicode defines the character and sequence. Apple, Google, Samsung, Microsoft, and individual apps then add their own artwork on separate schedules. That is why a released emoji can still appear as a box on older software.
Release status is separated from phone availability so a draft is never presented as a working emoji.
Install iOS 26.4 on a supported device, then reopen the emoji keyboard. App and device support can still vary, and a recipient with older software may see a box instead of a newer emoji.
Emoji 17.0 was released with Unicode 17.0 on September 9, 2025. Phone makers then added their own artwork on separate schedules; Apple included eight new emoji designs in iOS 26.4.
Apple's release notes count eight new emoji designs. Unicode's total of 163 includes characters plus skin-tone, gender, family, and other standardized sequences, so the figures measure different things.
No. Unicode 18.0 is still in beta, so its candidates, names, code points, and final inclusion can change. This tracker intentionally disables copying for beta candidates.
Fingerprint belongs to Emoji 16.0, which was released before Emoji 17.0. It remains a high-interest newer emoji, but it is not an upcoming Unicode 18.0 candidate.
The character can be valid Unicode before an operating system, font, browser, or app has added artwork for it. Update the device and app; if support is still missing, the text may render as a box or placeholder.
Release names and status are checked against the Unicode Consortium and Apple update documentation.
