Here are Apple's new emoji for firefighters, astronauts, and artists by Kif Leswing on Aug 24, 2016, 8:11 PM Apple doesn't get to pick what new emoji are officially created — that's Unicode's job — but because so many people use emoji on Apple's iPhones, it certainly has some say. And now Apple is pushing for several new characters, as revealed in a Unicode proposal submitted earlier this month and uncovered by Emojipedia. Apple wants the Unicode consortium to certify new emoji for five new professions: Artist, firefighter, pilot, astronaut, and judge. If approved, these emojis will become official in November. Like other emoji, users will be able to pick the character's gender and skin tone. Earlier this summer in Apple emoji news, it decided to change its revolver icon to a squirt gun and reportedly pushed Unicode to ditch an emoji depicting a rifle. The new characters are pretty cool.
