Emojify Turns Your Photos Into Emoji Collages


August 20, 2013 | Andy Cush

Do you see anything in the massive cluster of Emojis above? Try stepping back from your computer and squinting your eyes a little so it goes out of focus. Anything? Nothing?

It’s me! Wearing sunglasses! Made out of Emojis! I made it using Emojify, a new app for iOS that turns each pixel of a photo into an Emoji, creating a big mosaic like mine. As the Verge points out, it works best with subjects against a plain background, so don’t try Emojifying that beautiful shot of the rainbow over Brooklyn you took yesterday.

The app is a dollar, and for that, the image looks pretty good, right? I just can’t believe it doesn’t have a single sunglasses-guy Emoji.
