With iOS 18.4, Apple introduced eight new emoji to your iPhone.

Apple launched iOS 18.4, which included a few new features to all iPhones, including extra controls in Control Center and a recipes section in Apple News. Eight new emoji were also added to all iPhones with the update. These included a paint spatter, a harp, and a weary face with bags under its eyes, which is, in my view, an excellent emoji.

Downloading the update will give you access to the new emoji. To do this, choose Settings > General > Software Update, select Update Now, and then adhere to the on-screen instructions.
