Apple almost did something very, very bad.Since time immemorial, the peach emoji on iOS has been a very unnatural shape - so unnatural in fact, that many use it to represent
something entirely different.
From saucy sexting to cheeky mooning, the peach has been adopted far and wide as a symbol of the bum, derrière, backside, booty or "butt" as they like to call it in America.
However, in its initial iOS 10.2 update, Apple made a grave error - it changed the design of its peach emoji to more closely resemble an actual peach.
Of course, it's not certain yet which version of the peach emoji will be used in the final version of iOS 10.2, which is expected to roll out to the general public in late November or early December.
The update will add the 72 new emoji that were approved by the Unicode Consortium back in June 2016, as part of the Unicode 9.0 update
Bacon, avocado, a wilted flower and a black heart are also featured in the update.
As well as the new emoji, iOS 10.2 introduces three new wallpapers, a new "Celebration" screen effect for the Messages app, and a new headphone icon in the status bar for Bluetooth audio devices.
There's also a new widget for the Videos app, a "Preserve Camera" setting, and a new "Press and Hold to Speak" menu under the Home Button Accessibility settings, as well as a new "Show Star Ratings" option under the Music app
