Emoji Version 13.1

Emoji 13.1 the latest emoji release intended to provide new emoji updates on phones in 2021, after the announced delay of Unicode 14.0. This was confirmed at the Unicode Technical Committee meeting in April 2020.

Additions are expected to include mixed skin tone support for all variations of ?? Kiss and ?? Couple with Heart, which until now have only been available in default yellow on most major platforms.

Emojis in the final release are limited to emoji sequences, as new code points require a full Unicode release, which isn't slated until Unicode 14.0. It is likely that Emoji 13.1 support will come to major platforms throughout 2021. More about Emoji 13.1.
