Google is developing the next generation of emoji, which will be publicly available through its Noto Emoji initiative. To begin, there are 31 new emojis (for a total of 3,664) to catch up to Unicode 15.0, all of which will be available on Android and other Google projects early next year.
Support for animation is one of the most significant enhancements. See an example below. You may also look at all of the animations that are presently available here - they are accessible to download as GIFs and video files and can be used right away.
Google is also adopting a new typeface format known as COLRv1. Because they are vector pictures, they result in reduced font files (for example, Twitter's "Twemoji" icon collection was removed).Google is developing the next generation of emoji, which will be publicly available through its Noto Emoji initiative.
