if you want to distribute the emoji insert in the text field, you can use NSPredicates or can check the NSCharacterSet.

You must add \U0000FE0Eafter the special character in your NSString. This will mean that the OS will use the "regular" version, and not replace it with emoji. See https://paulofierro.com/blog/2013/3/30/disabling-emoji-characters-with-unicode-variants
