### Why can't I see the 🛙 emoji?

🛙 is new in Emoji 18.0, released in 2026. Each phone and computer draws emoji with its own font, so it appears once your device's maker adds Emoji 18.0 in an update. Apple has brought recent Emoji versions to iPhone, iPad and Mac in a spring update, about six months after Unicode released them; Google brings them to Pixel phones in Android updates, and Microsoft to Windows 11 through Windows Update. Other devices show Emoji 18.0 once their makers add it. Until then it may show as a box, but you can still copy and send it, and the pictures on this page show how it looks.
