Thanks for hunting this @chrismessina!
Since forever I have looked for vector versions of various Emoji. Emoji today are so ubiquitous in our design language and I personally use them a lot. I have been in plenty of situations where it would have been great to have a set of editable and scalable emoji. Unfortunately there are close to zero good sources onlineβ I at least never managed to find any that I liked.
So I'm pretty excited to release a vector emoji set in the freebie section on Apply Pixels. I spend a lot of time trying to get these as close to the real thing has possible. They're available for both Photoshop & Sketch. Hope you find a use for them! π

@chrismessina@flarup Thank you for not forcing me to enter my email before I downloaded the file! Entered it afterwards because of that.
@florian_monfort Just open PSD files in XD and you're good to go!
PS: Recently XD added better support for opening Sketch files.

Are these not copyright-protected by Apple? From my understanding, specific Emoji implementations are owned by the entity who created them, and these are the ones from Apple.
@flarup@chrismessina Kind of infuriating that you know someone originally made all these (anyone know who?) and the vector version exists out there somewhere! Maybe an Apple employee could leak them π€
@flarup@brandonhaslegs I know, seriously. I don't understand why Apple doesn't release them. Maybe there's a way to decode the Apple Color Emoji font to get to the vectors?
I was just working on a design in photoshop with printscreen/paste from emojipedia.org when I got the notification you published these π. Too bad it's only the common ones.
This was a thoughtful creation but you can just use Control + Command + Space Bar on Mac to get emojis. I guess this would be helpful for windows users but sketch doesn't work on windows PCs. Thanks for making them nonetheless. π
