Emoji 12.0: Apple Proposes Wheelchairs, Prosthetic Limbs For 2019 Rollout Of Emojis

Following the successful launch of Animoji, Apple now appears to be focused on introducing a new set of emojis to consumers. The Cupertino giant has recently submitted disability-themed emojis for consideration by the Unicode Consortium, the non-profit organization that coordinates the development of the Unicode standard. Emoji blog Emojipedia was the first one to spot and report about Apple's new emojis. According to the site, Apple submitted the proposed pack of "accessibility emojis" on March 23, Friday. The pack reportedly includes wheelchairs, a hearing aid, prosthetic limbs and a guide dog, among others.
