A new slate of emoji is up for consideration to roll out this year and next.
The 31 new additions will be considered in September and will likely be approved.

A new batch of emoji could reach your phone later this year, and it includes some interesting additions.

On Wednesday, Emojipedia released a first look at 31 new emoji up for consideration this September. Among them are a donkey, some maracas, and hands that could take on a few different meanings, depending on how you look at them. In the likely event they're approved by The Unicode Consortium, the organization responsible for greenlighting emoji, they'll roll out to devices starting later in 2022 and into 2023.

Here's a look at all 31 emoji:

1. Shaking face

There are heart emoji in colors like brown, purple, green, and blue, but people have wanted for a plain pink heart emoji for years. Now, they may just get their wish.
