Apple releases 104 new emojis!

Today Apple released a developer preview of iOS 10.2 and the update includes 104 new emojis!!!!

The iPhone emoji keyboard will now come with symbols that represent occupations like teacher, scientist and firefighter, as well as updated people-themed emoji—including one depicting a pregnant woman.

Apple have even included a Gorilla, which will make conversations about Harambe just that bit more fun (cos for some reason he's still relevant).
