Enjoy the new Unicode 9.0 emojis on iOS right now with a simple workaround

June 26, 2016 by macjeff

Many of you probably already heard the news that Unicode 9.0 became official this week and that there were going to be 72 new emojis coming soon.

Although Apple is likely to add support for these new emojis in iOS 10 in a future beta or release update, they’re not yet available in iOS whatsoever, but in this tutorial, we’ll show you how you can still use them without a jailbreak on a completely stock device.

Getting the new Emojis on iOS

It doesn’t matter whether you’re on iOS 9 or even if you’re in the latest iOS 10 beta. Apple hasn’t added support for the new Emojis that are a part of Unicode 9.0 just yet. With that being said, anyone can benefit from adding these new emojis manually.

If you want to get them, you could certainly wait until Apple is good and ready to implement them, or you could follow these steps to get them right now:

1) Launch Safari on your iOS device and visit the following link to load the website with all the new emojis:

http://emojipedia.org/emojipedia/

2) Scroll down until you see the line starting with the word “emojis” just above the actual emoji images.

3) Highlight all of the Emojis by tapping and holding on the word “emojis” and then dragging the selector all the way down, then tap on the Copy button.

4) Next, you’ll open the Notes app on your iOS device and you’ll create a new note.

5) Paste everything into the new note.

6) Now to test it out, tap and hold on one of the emojis you see and then tap on the Copy button.

7) Go ahead and start a new conversation with someone in the Messages app and Paste the emoji into the text field of the app.

8) Tap the Send button and the emoji should send to that person.

They will be able to see it no matter what version of iOS they’re running because it was sent as a tiny image file. Both iMessage and SMS are compatible with sending images so long as your phone and carrier support it.

Wrapping up

You may not be adding a slew of new emojis to iOS’ built-in Emoji keyboard itself, but with this method, you can at least still enjoy sending the new emojis to people before Apple actually implements it.

They can be shared across a variety of platforms, including Facebook Messenger and other messaging platforms that support sending image files.

Are you excited to see if Apple adopts the new emojis in a future version of iOS 10? Share in the comments!

Zenge , Gravitations - Player Made Missions , Mind the Gap! Learn English Language – not just Grammar and Vocabulary and more

iPhone:

It's able to track all of your most critical performance metrics like calories, distance, time, speed, altitude, and pace. It also provides you with real-time map data, voice feedback, and even the local weather. The app includes history, automatic pause detection, and the ability to share your results via your favorite social networks.

Universal:

Zenge is void of points, timers, tutorials, move counters, and rating systems. They’re just a distraction from the art and sound. The idea is to slide puzzle pieces together in order to complete the image. The only thing stopping you are the puzzle pieces themselves since they can block each other out if put into place too soon. Take your time. Relax. Enjoy.

Guide your ship through space and around obstacles by dragging points along its path. Your goal is to not only successfully make it from one station to the other, but also recuse every last astronaut along the way. Keep in mind that you have a limited amount of fuel to complete your mission, so you must create the most efficient path. The game includes more than 4,500 user-created missions to complete, more than 30 spaceships to utilize, and the ability to create your own missions using a library of interstellar objects.

Mind the Gap takes authentic English text and cuts out words. It’s up to you to reconstruct the missing fragments by trying to understand the context of each sentence. After you’ve done your best, allow Mind the Gap to go over your answers and provide feedback. You can look up unfamiliar words in the dictionary so you don’t make the same mistake twice and go over your personal stats. Mind the Gap includes 15 subject areas and more than 500 pieces of text to work through.

Brain Wave Zen Meditation offers advanced brainwave entrainment therapy. You’re able to select from morning, afternoon, and evening programs, and choose a soothing background sound to accompany them. Then hit play and allow the app to sync your brainwaves to the deeply relaxing low frequency alpha, theta, and beta waves. The app also allows you to adjust the signal intensity and save your settings for later use.

Facie allows you to import any photo from your library or capture a new one from within the app. It will then automatically detect the outline and contours of your face. You’re able to mix and match a variety of selfie-improving filters like pure skin, lean face, bright smile, and divine light. The intensity of each filter can be adjusted as well.

Division Flashcard Match Games is loaded with positive reinforcement. It will help your child learn to divide by having them play a variety of memory matching games. You’re able to choose the best number range for your child’s skill level, but no matter which you choose your child will be able to hear the numbers and equations as they are touched. After each round, they’ll receive positive feedback and balloon popping rewards. Hints are available along the way, and “Show Me” and “Peek” features make it even easier for young learners to enjoy.

Bvddy, Radar, WalletHub and other apps to check out this weekend

June 25, 2016 by macjeff

In this week’s installment of our Apps of the Week roundup, we’ve put together a list of unique apps and great games for you to check out over the weekend. Looking for a gym partner or tennis buddy? Bvddy can help. Going on vacation soon? Grab Radar for tips on the best places to visit. Keep reading for the full rundown.

Bvddy

Bvddy helps you discover new friends that play the sports you love. It’s kind of like Tinder for sports partners. So are you looking for a tennis buddy? Someone to run or do yoga with? A fellow gym rat? Bvddy will take your interest and skill level and find the perfect match. Then you can chat with them to coordinate your meeting, and locate nearby venues like yoga studios and soccer fields. Finally there is a review system to help weed out the bad sports. Bvddy is available for free.

Radar – Travel Smart

Radar is a new app from Yahoo that delivers personalized recommendations of sights to see, activities to try and restaurants to visit when you’re on vacation. The app sort of acts like a smart travel guide, with data sourced from several trusted websites across the web. You can filter recommendations based on individual preferences and time of year, create your own bucket list, view your itineraries, and get need-to-know tips from other travelers who have been there. This app is available for free.

WalletHub

WalletHub sells itself as the “first and only app” to offer 100% free credit scores with full reports that are updated daily. The app uses TransUnion for its reporting, and even offers 24/7 credit monitoring to warn you of identity theft and fraud. Plus you’ll get customized credit-improvement tips and personalized savings alerts. I know there are a bunch of these services out there, most notably Credit Karma, but WalletHub may be worth a try. Setup is easy, and the app is secure and well-designed. This app is available for free.

Twilight Struggle Mobile

The #1 rated strategy board game comes to iOS. Twilight Struggle puts the player at the center of the Cold War, the political and economic struggle between the U.S. and the U.S.S.R that spanned 5 decades from the 1950’s to the 1990’s. You control one of the two modern superpowers, as they work to spread their dominance throughout the world via political influence and coup attempts. But if either side triggers nuclear war, it’s game over! This game is iPad-only, and is available for $7.99.

Rodeo Stampede – Sky Zoo Safari

Saddle up and get ready to wrassle with the stampede-iest critters this side of the Savannah, in Rodeo Stampede. Lions and Tigers and Bears are no match for this rodeo star. Armed with a lasso and a ten gallon hat, swing from the backs of stampeding buffalo, elephants, ostrich, alligators, and more. When the stampede’s over, the zoo begins! Fill enclosures with your four-footed friends and let your patrons gaze in wonder. This is one wild ride that you don’t want to miss. This game is available for free.
