‘Tis the season to be jolly, and Google is getting into the holiday spirit with a festive update to its Phone app. Say hello to audio emojis, a fun feature that allows users to send short sounds during voice calls, which are then translated into different emojis. But here’s the twist: in the spirit of Christmas, Google has given these emojis a holiday makeover. With version 156 of the Phone app, currently available for Google Pixel users, you can now use two new audio emojis during your calls: a Christmas tree and fireworks. These new emojis will only be available for a limited time, eventually being replaced by the traditional versions.

Now, you might be wondering, what’s the point of these audio emojis? Well, they’re just a small and simple update designed to enhance your conversations during calls, and to bring a little extra holiday cheer. It’s all about adding a touch of fun and expressiveness to your phone conversations, because let’s face it, sometimes words alone just don’t cut it. And what better time to do that than during the most wonderful time of the year?

But wait, there’s more! If you want to make sure you don’t miss out on these festive audio emojis, you’ll need to update your Phone app to the latest version via the Play Store. It’s worth noting, though, that it might take a few days for the update to reach all users. So, if you don’t see it right away, don’t fret. It’s on its way.

Now, let’s talk about these audio emojis. When you’re on a call and you want to send an audio emoji, simply tap on the emoji button in the Phone app and select either the Christmas tree or fireworks emoji. Once you’ve made your choice, a short sound will play on the other person’s end, accompanied by the corresponding emoji. It’s a fun way to add a little extra holiday spirit to your conversations, and it’s sure to put a smile on the other person’s face.

But remember, these holiday-themed audio emojis won’t be around forever. So, make the most of them while you can, and spread some holiday cheer to your loved ones near and far. After all, ’tis the season to be merry and bright.

So, whether you’re chatting with family and friends or catching up with loved ones who are far away, why not add a little extra holiday magic to your phone calls? Give these festive audio emojis a try and see how they can bring a smile to your face and make your conversations even more memorable. Happy holidays, everyone!
