Summary | Different smartphone operational systems display the same emojis differently. This can cause quite some misunderstandings, as researchers have found out. One emoji is being interpreted much differently when displayed within Android versus when displayed within Apple OS. So a positive smiling emoji appears as a grimace to iPhone users.

Summary | Using emojis can be tricky. Firstly, they do not look the same on all devices. This can lead to misunderstandings because we interpret a lot in other people's emoji use. Researchers also advise people to use few if any emojis in work-related communication. One should entirely abstain from using emojis when communication with a superior or employee. One should also be mindful of how often one changes the profile picture and what one's profile picture depicts.
