The most notable or advertized new feature of the Apple's iOS9.1 is the new full-packed Emoji library. The characters offered in the emoji ranges from farm animals, flowers, a whole wide variety of facial expression, religious places, weapons up to hand gestures and a lot more. Apparently, there is one emoji that raises public disgust at the same time for most people - the middle finger emoji. Since Apple shows its full support for Unicode 7.0 and 8.0, they have added 150 emoji, which includes all emoji present and approved by the Unicode standard.
