It seems like the white heart emoji is popping up everywhere, so I decided to poll my followers. Although only one person responded on Twitter, it’s clear they’re not a fan. Meanwhile on Instagram, 88% said they like it, which was based on a larger sample of 17 people. This poll also had more engagement on Instagram than all of my previous polls, so my followers were eager to say how much they love it.
The white heart emoji was added to iOS 13.2 at the end of October 2019. New emojis are released every year, but it’s usually harder to tell which ones become immediately popular.
