While you're waiting to download iOS 10, check out the preview from Apple of the 12 new and redesigned emoji we can expect to see [1].

The updated emoji include more gender diversity like a woman swimming, surfing, and cycling — options previously only available as male emoji. Other emoji improvements include a woman as a private investigator, a construction worker, and a single mom. The same goes for new male emoji, like a single-dad one that will come to life in iOS 10.

iOS 10 [2] will also bring a rainbow flag emoji [3] and will replace the pistol emoji with a water gun. These new emoji are just another reason to start downloading iOS 10 [4] — the new operating system already out that will let you hide default Apple apps [5], use an improved iMessage [6], and more. It's also another sign that emoji will continue to become more inclusive and diverse [7].
