Generative AI: Your Emojis, Your Rules
One of the most outstanding features of iOS 18 will be the ability to create your own emojis using generative AI. Imagine being able to have a unique emoji for every occasion that fits your mood or message exactly. No more waiting for the next iOS update to get new emojis - you can just create them yourself.
How does it work?
The generative AI analyzes what you write and creates an appropriate emoji based on that, says Gurman. This technology allows you to go beyond the existing catalog and use truly customized emojis. Whether you need an emoji for a special inside joke among friends or a unique symbol for a special celebration, the AI will help you design it.
More customization options with iOS 18
In addition to the emoji AI, iOS 18 also brings new ways to personalize your home screen:
- Recolor app icons: You can now recolor app icons to give your home screen a unique look. This feature gives you the freedom to color match your apps to your wallpaper or current theme.
- Free placement of app icons and widgets: With iOS 18, you are no longer tied to the rigid grid on the home screen, says Gurman. You can freely place app icons and widgets and create an individual look that reflects your personality. This feature gives you more flexibility and creativity when designing your home screen.
