I don't have the option to change skin color so I guess the alien head is used when it's not recognized. Like my phone sees this emoji but it's like its taking a different language that it can't understand. I think I have to update my phone and I should be able to see skin tones on emoji. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-change-the-skin-tones-of-your-emojis#post-2292303 Wed, 16 Sep 2015 09:31:19 +0000 .twist. 2292303@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Ajsmommy: just press and hold the emoji you want to change. should pop up with options. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-change-the-skin-tones-of-your-emojis#post-2292301 Wed, 16 Sep 2015 09:30:56 +0000 Ajsmommy 2292301@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>how do you change the tones?</p> <p>ETA: duh.. nm I see it now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-change-the-skin-tones-of-your-emojis#post-2292299 Wed, 16 Sep 2015 09:29:32 +0000 .twist. 2292299@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Alivoo01: L had a bit of jaundice; I feel like it's slightly realistic.

Haha. @hilsy85: it means your iOS is out of date. I think u need 8.3 or higher. My husband saw the alien thing on his android tho I think. I'm not sure if you can fix that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-change-the-skin-tones-of-your-emojis#post-2292282 Wed, 16 Sep 2015 09:13:20 +0000 hilsy85 2292282@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@bluestriped bee: @birdofafeather: wait so what does that little ghost face thing mean? I've seen it a ton and I have no idea! Does it just show up next to an emoji if the skin has been changed? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-change-the-skin-tones-of-your-emojis#post-2292194 Wed, 16 Sep 2015 08:29:49 +0000 snowjewelz 2292194@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes I did! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-change-the-skin-tones-of-your-emojis#post-2292173 Wed, 16 Sep 2015 08:15:01 +0000 Alivoo01 2292173@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did because the yellow was just too weird/non-realistic! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-change-the-skin-tones-of-your-emojis#post-2292121 Wed, 16 Sep 2015 07:21:14 +0000 Foodnerd81 2292121@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn't know you could, but I also really don't care. Id rather waste my time doing other pointless things like looking at Halloween costumes my kid will change her mind about. I don't think I've ever gotten one that was changed so I guess none of my friends know. No aliens either. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-change-the-skin-tones-of-your-emojis#post-2292097 Wed, 16 Sep 2015 06:49:55 +0000 Applesandbananas 2292097@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't but then again, I don't use a ton of emojis </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-change-the-skin-tones-of-your-emojis#post-2292074 Wed, 16 Sep 2015 05:54:06 +0000 birdofafeather 2292074@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@bluestriped bee: Settings &gt; General &gt; Keyboards &gt; add keyboard &gt; emoji </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-change-the-skin-tones-of-your-emojis#post-2292064 Wed, 16 Sep 2015 05:39:55 +0000 BSB 2292064@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@birdofafeather: I don't see the keyboard maybe I need to update my phone. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-change-the-skin-tones-of-your-emojis#post-2292051 Wed, 16 Sep 2015 03:55:27 +0000 BSB 2292051@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@junebugsmama: @autumnlove: Haha. Yup, for the longest time DH and I (before he updated) was wondering why his mom sent alien heads all the time. I never understood it until DH updated his phone. She's a bad texter so we thought it was it something weird she was doing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-change-the-skin-tones-of-your-emojis#post-2292034 Tue, 15 Sep 2015 23:21:33 +0000 jedeve 2292034@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I feel weird doing it! Like, I know I'm white I don't need my emojis to be white too!
