+
+<p>
+ Android N introduces additional emojis and emoji-related features including
+ skin tone emojis and support for variation
+ selectors. If your app supports emojis,
+ follow the guidelines below to take advantage of these emoji-related features.
+</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li>
+ <strong>Check that a device contains an emoji before inserting it.</strong>
+ To check which emojis are present in the
+ system font, use the {@link android.graphics.Paint#hasGlyph(String)} method.
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <strong>Check that an emoji supports variation selectors.</strong>
+ Variation selectors allow you to
+ present certain emojis in color or in black-and-white.
+ On mobile devices, apps should represent emojis in color rather than black-and-white. However,
+ if your app displays emojis inline with text, then it should use the black-and-white variation.
+ To determine whether an emoji has a variation, use the variation selector.
+ For a complete list of characters with variations, review the
+ <em>emoji variation sequences</em> section of the
+ <a class="external-link"
+ href="http://www.unicode.org/Public/9.0.0/ucd/StandardizedVariants-9.0.0d1.txt">
+ Unicode documentation on variations</a>.
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <strong>Check that an emoji supports skin tone.</strong> Android N allows users to modify the
+ rendered skin tone of emojis to their preference. Keyboard apps should provide visual
+ indications for emojis that have multiple skin tones and should allow users to
+ select the skin tone that they prefer. To determine which system emojis have
+ skin tone modifiers, use the {@link android.graphics.Paint#hasGlyph(String)}
+ method. You can determine which emojis use skin tones by reading the
+ <a class="external-link"
+ href="http://unicode.org/emoji/charts/full-emoji-list.html">
+ Unicode documentation</a>.
