Redheads left out of iOS 8.3 update
Despite petitions, Apple’s latest update, which includes several new anddiverse emoji characters, doesn’t feature a redhead emoji.There are a variety of new emoji included in iOS 8.3 along with expanded family options, and emoji skin tone modifiers for changing the look of people emoji. There are also a range of new flags, and updated emoji that resemble the iPhone, iMac, and Apple Watch.But, alas, there are no redheads. The petition on Change.org was asking for an emoji that would represent 2% of the world’s population, or around 138,000,000 “iPhones that are just “waiting to happen.”The iOS 8.3 update also adds wireless CarPlay, which lets iPhone users connect their device to their CarPlay systems wirelessly; support for Google two-factor authentication; and new text formatting options in landscape mode on the iPhone 6 Plus.The full update log can be seen below.
