FireRose ~ "Notably, while the designs for each of the skin tone options for 🫸 Rightwards Pushing Handand 🫷 Leftwards Pushing Hand are visible on Apple devices, the current Apple emoji keyboard does not allow for these skin tone options to be accessed through the usual press-and-hold selection method. This is expected to be resolved in a subsequent iOS update." Source:

Thank you for the screenshot.


Recommending Emojis be Deleted:

Apple is not the creator of these emojis. So, rather than recommending this deletion through Apple, you need to make a proposal for one to The Unicode ConsortiumGo Here: Submitting Emoji Proposals - Unicode. That is your only option.

"I was not recommending these emojis to be deleted at all I’m just trying to figure out why it’s not showing the multiple skin modifications as the others. I’m only seeing the yellow even with long pressing"

Make a Proposal:

I'm recommending that you you, yourself, propose these yourself.  Go Here: Submitting Emoji Proposals - Unicode.

"I don’t need to propose these myself if they are included in the iOS 16.4 release. I was just curious why it wasn’t showing up on my device when the pictures showed that’s the variants we were getting. Unless, is there only one skin modification?"

-------


Let it Sit:

Well, then blow it off, and don't propose, if it does not bug you.
