Google introduced 65 new emojis

17 July 2019 year marks World Emoji Day. This is about emoticons used in emails. The graphic language first appeared in Japan and quickly spread throughout the world. Before that, punctuation marks were used, which are still relevant for the older generation. On the eve of the holiday, Google introduced 65 new emojis that will come with the Android operating system 10 Q.

In addition to the list of new animals and products, the list includes 53 gender emoticons. In a press release, Google representatives explained that emojis themselves would be without a text description, without indicating sex. Gender smileys themselves have expanded in the number of shades of skin color from two to six.

Google introduced 65 new emojis

According to IT market experts, the gender issue with emoji has been repeatedly raised by Europeans over the course of several years. However, Google did not rush to change something. Most likely, the decision to add new emoticons is associated with the launch of the next Google product on the market. This is a Google Pixel smartphone. Remarkable in assembly and functionality, the devices are of low popularity in Europe. Therefore, the manufacturer took such a step.

It is known that for all compatible Google Pixel smartphones there is already an update of the operating system to the BETA version of Android Q. However, users are not in a hurry to download and install new firmware. The fact that Google introduced 65 new emoji is good. But the update does not work correctly. After installation, it is found that all applications on the smartphone gain access to the navigation chip. That is, they have unlimited access to the user's location.

Perhaps this is not a glitch at all. It is believed that Google has deliberately made such an innovation for its mobile devices. If the negative does not get publicity, then it is likely that all subsequent smartphones will be programmatically controlled GPS module.
