These Are All The Weird New Emoji Coming With iOS 9.1
10 September 2015

While Apple's new mobile operating system iOS 9 won't arrive on devices until 16 September, we've already been given a glimpse of the new emoji set to arrive with its successor - iOS 9.1. 

And, if we're honest, we've no idea how we're going to use half of them.

"Sorry darling, I'll be late home tonight - just hitting the gym [female weight lifter performing overhead squat]"

"Your new boyfriend seems nice [face spitting money with dollar eyes]"

"Could someone point me toward [image of the Kaaba, Mecca]"

"[Middle finger emoji] - that's what I think"

As ever, we're sure users will find new, expressive ways of communicating with the fresh set of faces and icons as soon as it arrives later this year. At the moment, you'll only be able to play around with these if you've got the Beta version of the software for development purposes.

Here are more of the emoji in their natural habitat, as captured by 9to5Mac.
