Microsoft released the first build of Windows 10 Mobile to Insiders in the Fast Ring who own a Lumia 950 XL, Lumia 950, Lumia 650, Lumia 550 or a Xiaomi Mi 4. The update brings the ability to send images in a Skype conversation using the Messaging app, which was a much-required feature. Additionally, the company also added a pretty major feature: support for Skype Mojis.

Yes, you can finally send Skype Mojis using the Messaging app — at least on Windows 10 Mobile Redstone. In Build 14267, you can send Skype Love Mojis, Holywood Mojis and all the other types of Mojis. In addition to this, build 14267 also brings a categorized emoji panel which should make it easier to find emojis in the app now.

It is not yet clear if this feature will be coming to older builds of Windows 10 Mobile via an app update yet. However, for now, it’s only on Redstone. If you are on build 14267, make sure to check it out!

Thanks for the tip, Lucas N.!
