A slew of new icons representing everything from wheelchairs to service animals are coming to smartphones soon.
Apple said it will add 59 emoji including many representing the disability experience to iPhones and other devices as part of a software update this fall.
Google indicated that the new disability-related symbols will be among 65 emoji released later this year with its Android Q operating system.
