17th July - World Emoji Day


World Emoji Day

World Emoji Day is celebrated annually on 17th July, since 2014.

July 17th, 2002 was the day Apple unveiled its iCal App at Macworld 2002.  This iOS mobile operating system calendar emoji is a daily flip calendar.  It is depicted as a page torn off from a daily desk calendar displaying month in a red and blue header and day on a white square page.  It is set for July 17th, the App's birthday. So  Jeremy Burge, founder of Emojipedia choose 17th as World Emoji Day.

The below Emoji stamps issued by Switzerland on 7th September 2017, depicts emojis.

    I use Emoji in all messages I send. They revel my state of spirit and fulfil the meaning of my words. I didn't know they have a special day in our calender. That's great! 👋👋👋 Thank you for sharing! ❤🥰
