- itsoktocry 3y ago>The main reason people update their phone OS is for new emoji I can't avoid the anecdata game, so: what generation are you? I don't know a single person who would update their phone for a new emoji.
- Almondsetat 3y agoThe real question is: why are emojis tied to operating system updates in Apple land?
- wilg 3y agoTo get people to upgrade! It's extraordinarily effective. They seem to always do it in the first major patch after a major release, to kinda ensure everyone gets a stable version of the OS.
- diebeforei485 3y agoBecause it convinces people to install the latest updates!! That's the whole point.

- Affric 3y agoMillenial (mid)... and know even Gen Xers and Boomers who would upgrade for new emoji. OS to many consumers (and consumer extends even to web developers/data scientists) means graphical shell.
- bombcar 3y agoI've upgraded (mainly) to get new emoji first. Some are quite funny.
- Insanity 3y agoAnecdata, but I feel most people don’t want to upgrade the software at all regardless of the features.. :p
