World Emoji Day
World Emoji Day falls on July 7. Why? July 17, 2002 was the day Apple unveiled its iCal app at MacWorld 2002. The iOS calendar emoji is a daily flip calendar set to July 17, the app’s “birthday.”
In 2015, World Emoji Day received a lot of traction online. #WorldEmojiDay was the top trending item on Twitter, and many companies, from McDonald’s, to Pepsi, to Google, to even Jif, got in on the act.
Thirty-eight new emojis will be available in June 2016, including a clown face, a face palm and a selfie, according to Unicode.
