Knowing that I could create any emoji to reflect my mood, I let my imagination run wild. I envisioned a whimsical blend of a laughing sun sporting sunglasses, a dancing cat in a tutu, and a coffee cup with a winking face to practice.

Apple’s latest iOS 18.1 software updates introduced a series of Apple Intelligence features, including Writing Tools and notification summaries. However, Here’s what you need to know about Genmoji, the Apple Intelligence feature that many people are excited about.

To use the feature, iPhone 16 users can press and hold the Camera Control button. Once in the Visual Intelligence interface, they can take a picture and ask ChatGPT about it. Alternatively, users can also perform a Google search with the image, similar to what Google Lens does, but in a more seamless and iOS-like fashion.
