Trick: activate the Emoji keyboard included in iOS 5

Today we are going to show you a little trick of iOS 5 that many of you may have overlooked when updating: activating the Emoji keyboard.

We know that there are free applications that include it, but why use an application being able to use something that comes standard in the operating system itself.

To activate it, we simply have to go to:

Settings -> General -> Keyboard -> International keyboards -> Add new keyboard… -> Emoji

Once added, when the keyboard is opened for the first time we will see that a new key has appeared next to the space bar whose logo is a globe. We click on it and that will allow us to switch between the keyboard we usually use and the Emoji.

Easy, simple and a reminder for all those who have forgotten this feature of iOS 5.

    I think that appears because you already had it installed before but when updating it has been deactivated ... What's more, I think to remember that I did not have to do anything, I updated and it was still there ... Anyway, it is not included in the OS but stops that appears you had to install it sometime!

    Thank you!

    I had "Emoji Free" installed because I didn't know that iOS 5 brought it ... automatically removed since I don't like having duplicate or useless applications ....

    the million dollar question.

    Yes I have this activated, and I send it to users who have wndows lie messenger or another cell phone that does not have ios and does not have any application that enters its name says Emoji. Can I see them?
    Or this sun is for people who have an iPhone or something from the Mac or something that has this program installed, because if so, I do not find any use for it since until now I do not know anyone that I know and I say that if I send them this I will not be asking you, did you get a face or something?
