Who wants to type out their emojis anymore? We have lists of little characters to click on now! No more typing a colon and parentheses to send a smile. And because of this, we get to celebrate World Emoji Day!

According to Facebook, every day there are around 900 million messages sent using only emojis, no text.

According to Twitter, the 'crying laughing' emoji is the most used, with other top ones being the pray hands, the heart, the fire, and the thumbs up.

In celebration of the holiday, Apple released 70 new emojis that will come with future updates.
