Irishmoji app launches with 150 Irish-specific emoji

There’s no shortage of emoji to help you express yourself visually, but a new app will give your emoji an Irish flavour.

Irishmoji has launched in time for Euro 2016 with 150 Irish specific emoji, including an Irish football jersey, hearts in Irish colours, a hurl, castles, a rugby jersey, the Gardaí, and many more.

Fanmoji founder, Tim Webber, said that he hopes that the team has done a good job of representing Ireland. "Ireland has such a deep cultural history in its buildings, landmarks and people, and along with the number of great symbols and phrases that lend themselves to emoji stickers and illustrations we thought it’d be a brilliant way to bring out the character of the country,” he said.
