Google's Blob Emoji are back as a sticker pack

Apparently, it's World Emoji Day, and although that probably does not mean much to most of us, for Google, it means the return of what many see as the # 39, legitimate emoji on Android – the blob emoji, or blobmoji. 19659002] For the uninitiated, blobmoji were basically the default emoji on Android for a number of years, before Google replaced them with more standard emoji last year. While the change was largely aimed at keeping the emoji a little more uniform across the platforms, many still considered it an undesirable change. Now it seems that users have access to blobmoji again, if they want it.

Technically, blobmoji was still available in Allo, the Google messaging service that debuted in 2016. But most people do not do it Allo, and Google has even moved the development of the service to Android Messages, It is therefore possible that Allo is completely depreciated at a given moment.

But now there is a new way to access blobmoji, and that's thanks to sticker packs in Gboard, The Google Mobile Keyboard. According to The Verge, they will also come to Android Messages. Now, bringing back blobmoji in sticker packs is not as useful as returning them to their system status, but it's at least a consolation for long-time Android fans who have missed blobmoji over the past year. [19659002] If you want to get the blobmoji sticker pack, you can do it directly from Gboard by downloading blobmoji as an add-on. The sticker pack still does not seem to have made its way to Android Messages, but it will probably do so in the near future. There are some other ways to get blobmoji on Android, but most of them are only user side – which means that when you send a blobmoji, only you will see it as a blobmoji, and the recipient will see it converted to standard emoji.

There are other ways to check blobmoji if you do not want to download them as a pack of stickers. For example, you can view the entire pack of blobmoji on emojipedia.org, If you are on iOS, you can even download a pack of stickers iMessage – in case you have always felt excluded from the magic of blobmoji in as a user of the iPhone.
