There are 1,064 emoji in iOS 9. Here’s Siri describing all of them

Emoji are taking over the world. Hell, they even have their own conventiongoverning body, and soon… a movie.

What emoji are still lacking is a great way to sort and easily find more than 1,000 digital faces, shapes and images. When looking at your phone it’s easy enough — albeit a bit inefficient — but what about when you want to use an emoji while driving with Apple’s CarPlay, a device all about keeping your hands on the wheel and your eyes on the road?

No worries, we’ve got Siri; and Siri, it seems, can read all 1,064 emoji currently included in iOS 9.
