We are gonna be using some of these A LOT!
Yes, we all know that emojis are part of our every day lives now. We can barely send a message to anyone without including at least one!
So every time there's an emoji update, naturally we get just a little bit excited.
One website called Emojipedia offers a regular insight into what we can expect from each new emoji update and this new one looks seriously magical.

Whilst the emojis look perfectly ready to be installed and used on our iPhone's right now, they're only at the candidate stage and may not be included in the final update at all.
Some of them are really good though and have to make it through - who wouldn't want a pretzel emoji, right!?

Out of all the potential new emojis, we're pretty sure that we'd be using the 'shh face' the most - especially knowing what some of our whatsapp group chats can end up like!
Which one is your favourite?
