How I Built an Emoji Picker Library for iOS
<p>The choice of emojis is a common phenomenon in apps because they have become a popular way for users to express themselves digitally. They can be used to add individuality and emotions to text messages or additional meaning to various elements of the application.</p>
<p>For example, in my <a href="https://apps.apple.com/app/id1500111859" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">Timetable</a> app, which is designed for keeping track of a schedule, it was necessary to add the ability to attach an emoji to the schedule title.</p>

<p>UI settings for the schedule name</p>
<p>It can only be done in a systematic way using <code>UITextField</code> or <code>UITextView</code> + <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/11382753/change-the-ios-keyboard-layout-to-emoji" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">a keyboard type workaround</a>. In my case, this was not suitable and I started looking for other ways. I found several libraries, but they all did not work for me for various reasons.</p>
