Apple Removing Pistol Emoji In Next Software Upgrade
When Apple releases it's newest iOS 10 operating system, you will no longer see the pistol emoji. Instead, you will see this:
I'm not going to lie, I think the pistol emoji is weird.
I've seen people use on social media a face emoji followed by the pistol emoji. It's like the emoji character is blowing their brains out. Ugh, no thanks.
I can honestly say I've never used the pistol emoji and I don't ever intend on it.
Apple is over the pistol emoji too. (You know which one I'm talking about right? It's the one in the center of the photo above.)
With the new operating system on iPhones and iPads, they will be replacing the pistol emoji with a green water gun emoji.
Now that is something I can get behind! I'm always ready for a good water gun fight, especially in the middle of the summer heat.
There will also be many other emojis added as well according to 9 to 5 Mac. Some of these include the pride flag, single parent options, female detective, female construction workers, female bodybuilder and more.
