AirTag laser engraving banned for some emoji and word combinations
Resend your recorded message. Give it a personal touch with your initials, your lucky number or your favorite emoji.
The boys and girls of The Verge they have been the first to give the alert. The customization of the AirTag engraving banned some combinations of emoji and words. One of those combinations is the one you see in the image that heads the article: a horse next to a 'happy poop'. However, other animals with the same poop emoji are not banned. Neither is the permuted combination vetoed by placing the poop before the horse.
Others of the banned words are insults or bad words of up to four letters because they are the maximum of letters that can be put in the personalized engraving. Some of those words, for example 'fuck' or 'ass'. It is clear that Apple wants laser engravings to personalize the AirTag, but it does not allow the incorporation of offensive elements.
However, this does not occur, at least the combination of the horse and cow emoji, in laser engravings of other customizable products such as the Apple Pencil. We will see if it is a mistake or if the Big Apple tries to avoid these types of combinations because they can be offensive, although, at first, it does not seem that it can be so.
