The update includes emojis from the new Unicode 9.0.0 standard, released this summer. The emojis are more diverse, with female representation across new jobs like scientist, firefighter and astronaut. Apple also emphasized more realistic design, for instance with new animals like fox and bat.

With iOS 10, people have new emoji-related options for the keyboard. One feature is called Tap to Replace where you can replace certain key words in an iMessage with emoji. In most apps you can also type a word, and the predictive text box will suggest an emoji for that word.
This greatly reduces the effort to swipe through the list. Now with 100 new emojis, it will be fun to see which new emojis show up in prediction.
