Twitter gets Emoji 5.0 support with 69 new Emojis

Twitter designer Bryan Haggerty has shared today that the social media platform has updated its emoji to include all of the new images available with the Emoji 5.0 release.

Twitter’s custom set of emoji, called Twemoji has been updated today to version 2.3. This update brings all of the 69 new images (239 with skin tone variations and duplicates) that are included in Emoji 5.0.

The new emojis are presently not available on  the iOS, Mac and the Android Nougat apps just yet, although 9to5Mac reports that Emoji 5.0 support is now showing up for those running the Android O developer preview.
