Emojis are a great way to express one's thoughts when words are not enough. Now social messaging app, WhatsApp, has released a new set of emojis to take messaging to the next level.

According to Android Police, the new emojis are available via a new update from the Play Store. The new emojis come in a variety of designs that are perfect to express one's mood for the day. There is even a middle finger emoji for those days when the day is just not going right. There are even heart emojis that have been rolled out just in time for Valentine's Day.

The messaging application also included the upside down face and the face with glasses in their emoji roster. There is an eye-rolling face for those days when one wants to throw shade and one with a thermometer for those sick days. 

The new flurry of emojis is bound to make messaging even more fun. The messaging application, which was purchased by Facebook back in 2014, has enjoyed a huge fanbase of users and is reported to have over a billion active monthly users, reports Android Authority. The instant messaging application continues to be a dominant force in the messaging world, enjoying a 4.5 rating on the Google PlayStore with users giving props to the developers on its stability. 

The latest update for WhatsApp is available for download on the Play Store (version 2.12.441). Now that the new emojis has been taken to the next level, WhatsApp users can now make their messaging conversations even more hilarious and colorful. A video calling feature might be for a later update, but that is to be determined. 

The new WhatsApp update is part of the new Marshmallow update, however, the update will entirely depend on the carrier, brand and model of the user's phone. Users can find that they can download the WhatsApp update at different given times, but the roll out for the additional emojis has already begun.

The messaging application was updated last time to include a slew of new emojis, including the turkey, hot dog and burrito. The last update also welcomed new LGBT-friendly emojis, which was a welcome addition to the messaging application.
