Congrats #MaryLattimore on the approval of the #HarpEmoji!
You can cut and paste it from @emojipedia and when your device gets updated in the spring it will magically appear in your old posts

Solidarity from the folks who brought you the #accordion #emoji ✊🏼🪗

We’ve been rooting for the #HarpEmoji for years! 🎶
Congrats to #harp player #MaryLattimore for her fab #emoji proposal! 🤩
@emojipedia has a link to Lattimore’s proposal in the Technical Information section:
She guided #Unicode Committee members through thousands of years of the history of the harp, leading up to the need for this tiny cartoon on billions of phones 📱
Nice one!
I’d give you an Irish #HarpEmoji but it hasn’t been released yet. Due later this year with luck 🍀
Thank #harp player #MaryLattimore for her fab #emoji proposal!
Hey! @stujames 🎶
I just heard that the Mary Lattimore’s #Harp #Emoji has been approved by #Unicode!
(Those are the people in charge of emojis 🧑🏽💻)
https://unicode.org/L2/L2023/23236-esc-report-q4-2023.pdf
It’s actually been “provisionally approved” which means it has another usually administrative final vote
And than should be on devices between April and September, 2024
It takes about three years to create an emoji. Almost all just waiting around 🥱
But hurray for the #HarpEmoji!

Was just adding a comment to a video about the HARP emoji, then realized the video was by Mary Lattimore, who co-wrote the proposal! 😹
So I recommended everyone should read her and Theo Schear’s great work while listening to the music 🎶

So glad I realized it was her, before emojisplaining she might want to read her own thing 😳

Lovely 🥰
Always great to hear our friend Walt McClements latest! 🪗
OMG Mary Lattimore wrote the proposal for the #HarpEmoji!
It was submitted to the emoji people at Unicode in 2019 and I think it’s on their list for consideration. So 🤞🏽!
Folks should read that proposal to see what it takes to make an emoji at: https://docs.google.com/document/u/0/d/1FQOxzTP-kNwpwoqFL-Idwpo0wC0pGqtwoli4w1t38oU/mobilebasic
