Just that, tried to add a witchy face or two but they're not showing up?

Hi there OP,

Thanks for letting us know.

Could you please let us know what device you're using , and whether this is this happening on the mobile site, desktop site or app?

iklboo · 19/10/2018 10:01

It's the same for me. I'm on an iPhone 8 using the app.

LadyRochfordsSpikedGusset · 19/10/2018 11:44

IPad Pro and IphoneX here

Just had a go on the desktop site MNHQ and it works that way.

Yep. Still not working.

Same here! iPhone. Since last update.
Changes whole tone of posts, as you can only see after posting.

Hi there everyone,

Thanks for letting us know - we're looking into it.

AnyaaaaaaaaaaaarghMumsnet · 19/10/2018 16:29

Can we check everyone - are these the MN emoticons, normal emojis or both?

LadyRochfordsSpikedGusset · 19/10/2018 19:35

Just MN emoticons for me, other ones are working.

Big deal for me. I keep looking like a fool as I can't use the big grin or the others I need to express myself

LadyRochfordsSpikedGusset · 19/10/2018 21:00

I've been replacing them with this 🧙‍♀️, not the same though!

AutumnalFeelings · 19/10/2018 21:52

Oh yes, same here. I look a right bitch without the :Ds showing!

LadyRochfordsSpikedGusset · 20/10/2018 08:43

Just tried again for a witchy smiley on a thread but no luck 😔.

VelociraptorRex · 20/10/2018 08:53

I'm on an iPhone 6 on the app, and the MN emoticons aren't working for me either!

PawneeParksDept · 20/10/2018 11:38

Just wanted to register that my emojis haven't worked for 2 days. On the app, iPhone 8

Thanks
