We all love a good emoji, and now there are plans to add even more which represent disabled people.

Apple is thinking about bringing in 13 new ones including guide dogs, a wheelchair user and prosthetic limbs.

There could also be a man and woman walking with a cane, a man and woman signing that they are deaf and a hearing aid.

Apple says this isn't a full list of all the possible emojis which might reflect disabilities but it's a "starting point".

So there may well be plans for even more. Hurrah!
