On social media, New Yorkers and bagel lovers of all stripes lamented the icon’s aggressively plain appearance.
Now Apple has responded. After its latest iOS software update, the emoji has a plumper, doughier look and a shmear of cream cheese.
The revamped emoji got some love from at least one trusted source — Philadelphia Cream Cheese.
It also elicited plenty of conversations (both serious and humorous) about other emojis that need some tweaking.
oh, I am soooooo thrilled now! I will run out and blow the budget on an Apple.
