Feat: Support Unicode 13.0+ emojis in reactions, messages, and emoji picker - #7580
Conversation
WalkthroughThe emoji catalog adds newer shortnames across multiple categories and updates flag entries in both categorized and flat exports. Conversion tests cover newer Unicode emoji names and inline text conversion. ChangesEmoji catalog expansion
Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~15 minutes Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to This PR expands emoji availability without changing rendering or shortcode conversion behavior. No actionable merge-blocking risk remains; broader conversion and catalog-parity tests can be added as follow-up. Suggested labels: 🚥 Pre-merge checks | ✅ 5✅ Passed checks (5 passed)

Learning: In this Rocket.Chat React Native codebase, the ESLint rule `no-void: error` is enforced. When you see a promise returned from an async call that is not awaited (a “floating promise”), do not silence it with the `void somePromise()` pattern. Instead, handle the promise explicitly by attaching `.catch(...)` (or otherwise awaiting/handling the error) so unhandled-rejection risks are addressed in a way that satisfies the existing ESLint configuration.

Timestamp: 2026-06-25T18:37:25.526Z
Learning: In Rocket.Chat ReactNative tests that mock selectors for `useAppSelector`, don’t require the mocked selector input to be typed as `IApplicationState` when the fixture only includes a partial Redux state slice (e.g., only `server` and `settings`). Requiring the full `IApplicationState` type in that scenario forces unsafe `as IApplicationState` casts and undermines type-safety. For these narrowly scoped selector-mock fixtures, use a less strict type (e.g., `any`) to keep the mock focused on the slice under test.

Proposed changes
Expand the emoji picker with newer Unicode emojis that are already supported by the React Native emoji mappings.
This update adds newer emojis across the existing emoji categories, including newer faces, gestures, people, animals, food, activities, travel, and objects.
This improves emoji discoverability and availability in the mobile Emoji Picker and autocomplete without changing the existing emoji rendering or shortcode conversion logic.
