With Apple Intelligence,* you can create custom emoji—called Genmoji. Simply describe what you want the Genmoji to look like or create one of friends and family based on their photos. You can add Genmoji to messages, share them as a sticker or Tapback, and more.

Apple Intelligence is not available on iPhone and iPad if you’re in the EU and if your Apple Account country or region is also in the EU. To check whether Apple Intelligence is available for your device and language, see the Apple Support article at the top right of the onscreen keyboard.
