10 — History
Where the ⛴️ Ferry emoji came from
Approved as part of Emoji 0.7, the ferry has been on phones for years now — counting from its release, 12.
Same character every time — U+26F4 U+FE0F never changed. Only the drawing did, and only because each vendor redraws its own set. Someone on an older phone still sees the older picture.
Ferry was approved as U+26F4 U+FE0F and shipped in Emoji 0.7 (2014). Phones usually get new artwork about a year after approval, in a system update.
Every vendor keeps its own artwork, so ⛴️ is redrawn by Apple, Google, Twitter / X, OpenMoji, Samsung, Microsoft, WhatsApp, JoyPixels. The character you send never changes — only the picture does.
