One of the major changes in iOS 8.3 is the addition of a wide range of racially diverse emojis such as different skin tone and family options. If that wasn’t enough, you should check out a new jailbreak tweak called Emoji83+ that enables the emojis which have been hidden by Apple.
The tweak enables the new Vulcan salute or Spock emoji and all the flag emojis which are available in iOS 8.3 or later but hidden. The Spock Emoji comes with skin tone options as well like the face Emojis.
After installing the tweak, there are no settings to configure. Simply launch the emoji keyboard and scroll to the ‘Travel & Places’ section of the keyboard where the flags are located. You’ll notice that a range of new flags are now available to use.
Similarly, the Vulcan salute emoji will be available in the ‘People’ section of the keyboard. To view the skin tone options, simply tap and hold on it just like any other emoji and choose the skin tone you’d like to use.
If you send these new emojis to anyone with an iOS 8.3 or higher device, they will be able to see it even if they are not jailbroken. The reason is that Apple has built these Emojis into iOS 8.3 but hasn’t made them available yet. The Vulcan salute emoji works with iOS 8.3 and above devices only whereas the flags have been tested to work with iOS 8.1 as well.
If you’re interested to check out the new emojis, head to Cydia and install Emoji83+ for free from BigBoss repo. Let us know how it goes in the comments section below.
