WhatsApp gets NEW emoji – all the icons and how to find them

WHATSAPP users will finally be able to send the latest emoji to friends and family.

The most recent release includes everything from a flirty biting lip, to a pregnant man.

There are 37 additions to choose from, such as heart hands, a melting face and a disco ball.

Apple rolled the latest batch out to iPhone users a few weeks ago with iOS 15.4.

But now it looks like Android users will be able to get in on the fun via WhatsApp as well.

According to WABetaInfo, the Meta-owned platform has started public testing.

What’s more, some emoji also support skin tone combinations as well.

Tapping and holding the hand shaking emoji reveals ten skin tone variants, instead of the default yellow.

While beta versions don’t always make it to release, this one will undoubtedly make the cut.

We’re not too sure when a full release will take place, but it shouldn’t take too long.

“These emojis are available for all beta testers that install the latest update of WhatsApp beta for Android, and the recipient needs to install the same update in order to view them,” WABetaInfo said.

Emoji is not the only thing WhatsApp is developing for Android users either.

Techies have rolled out their new voice note player to more beta testers, as it moves closer to a possible launch.

The feature gives multitaskers the ability to listen to voice notes while reading messages from others at the same time – before you had to stay within the same chat, otherwise the audio would stop.
