As part of Apple's iOS 18.4 update, iPhone users will have access to eight new emoji.

And there is one face that everyone is already saying will be their favourite.

The new emoji list includes some items that some iPhone users might find helpful including a harp, a shovel, a leafless tree and a root vegetable.

The update also includes a few stranger choices, such as the purple 'splatter', a bright blue fingerprint, and the flag of Sark – a small Channel Island with a population of just 500.

But it is the exhausted-looking 'face with bags under eyes' emoji that has Apple fans most excited.

On X one excited iPhone user wrote: 'I've never related to an emoji so much in my life'.

Another commenter wrote: 'I'm still saying that this will be the most used emoji of the year.'

'Definitely this emoji is going to take off,' one Apple user chimed in.

>>>

One enthusiastic commenter wrote: 'Harp emoji is going to change my life (and my friends being aware of my Guinness consumption) forever.'

'Updating my iPhone for the first time in 3 years to get the little Guinness harp emoji,' one commenter wrote.

Social media users also welcomed the arrival of the harp emoji, particularly for its similarity to the Guinness logo.

America is really just a free range prison run by a multitude of federal government agencies. Your smart phone is your ankle monitor. Your SNAP-Obamacare are your chow line and infirmary services. The prison gangs are now in zip codes. Your housing subsidies are your prison cells. There's no locks on the cell doors. They are not needed.

Interesting perspective and I can't say as I disagree with it.

Emojis are the phone equivalent of shiny sparkly things to women.

I feel sorry for the Sark flag. It’s getting no respect.

>>>

‘Sark flag is crazy maybe a grand total of 3 people will ever use that’, one commenter complained.

Another added: ‘I’m obsessed with the Sark emoji – Why Sark’.

<<<

Perhaps it will come into popular use as “[Sark]asm”

Just watched a mini series on Netflix called Adolescence.
Had no idea the hidden meanings of many emojis on our youth.
