Emoji Version Information
EmojiKit has an Emoji.Version type that defines Emoji versions, with information about platform and OS availability, as well as included emojis.
To get the latest available emoji version for the current runtime, you can use Emoji.Version.current:
let version = Emoji.Version.current
version.version // 15.0
version.iOS // 16.4
version.macOS // 13.3
version.tvOS // 16.4
version.watchOS // 9.4
You can also request specific emoji versions, for instance:
let v15 = Emoji.Version.v15
let v14 = Emoji.Version.v14
let v13 = Emoji.Version.v13
You can also get the emoji version supported by a certain OS version, for instance:
let version = Emoji.Version(iOS: 15.4)
version.version // 14.0
let version = Emoji.Version(macOS: 11.1)
version.version // 13.0
This lets you figure out exactly which version you can use for a certain OS and platform version.
Version Information
An emoji version defines in which OS versions it became available:
let version = Emoji.Version.v15
version.version // 15.0
version.iOS // 16.4
version.macOS // 13.3
version.tvOS // 16.4
version.watchOS // 9.4
Emoji versions also define all older and later emoji versions:
let version = EmojiVersion.v14
version.laterVersions // [.v15]
version.olderVersions // [.v13_1, .v13, .v12_1, ...]
This information can be used in many ways, for instance to determine OS and platform availability.
Version Emojis

let version = EmojiVersion.v14
version.emojis // 🫠🫢🫣🫡🫥🫤🥹...
version.laterVersions // [.v15]
version.olderVersions // [.v13_1, .v13, .v12_1, ...]
Emoji versions use later versions to provide a list of emojis that were introduced in later versions:
version.unavailableEmojis // 🫨🫸🫷🪿🫎🪼🫏🪽...
This information can be used to filter out unavailable emojis, to avoid empty gaps in OS and platform versions where the emojis are missing.
