Unicode-version 7.0
The Unicode Consortium approved the following characters as part of Unicode 7.0, released on June 16, 2014. Support for these emoji characters rely on updates from platform vendors such as Apple, Google and Microsoft.
Initially, 250 new characters in Unicode 7.0 were approved for emoji presentation, however this was later reduced to 103 Standard Additions which are listed below. The other characters remain part of Unicode, but are not recommended to be included as emojis.
The exception to this was the Left Speech Bubble, and as such wasn't initially specified on other platforms as an emoji. A later-accepted proposal updated this.
