The new emojis are based on the Unicode 8 standard, which is a set of symbols and words that the tech industry uses to make sure emojis are consistent across different devices. We first learned about these new emojis when the developer version of iOS 9.1 launched in September, but now they're available for everyone.
To update your iPhone to iOS 9.1, head over to Settings>General>Software Update. Then from there, you'll be prompted to agree to Apple's terms and conditions before proceeding with the update. It's best to connect to a Wi-Fi network when installing the update to avoid using a lot of data.
Here's the full list of improvements you'll get with iOS 9.1:
