Finally, Apple has released the new racially diverse set of emoji it first announced back in February. The new emoji characters come as part of the iOS 8.3 update. 

The change gives people the option to use emoji with six different skin tones—much more representative of what the general population actually looks like. The only downside of the update is that the praying hands emoji is not nearly as lit as it was before

There are over 300 new emojis in the update, so what are you waiting for?
