The use of emoji has become common, and your comments may not be without adding a heart, laughing emoji, sad, angry, or many other things, but we may use emoji and it is in fact not what we want, as it is unlike what we think, and it was created for a different purpose, and it is easy to know the purpose Through the name of this emoji, unfortunately, you will not see the names of these emoji on the iPhone, but there are some tools that you can use to display their names. One of them is using the Shortcuts app, where you enter the emoji and you see the name. There is also another trick through the iPhone's built-in speech tools and it will tell you the names of the emoji. In this article, we learn about these methods.
Why do we need to know the emoji names?
Knowing the emoji names helps us when you use Siri or Dictation to write text for you, and this is in the iOS 16 update, when you say the emoji names, they will be converted to the appropriate emoji form. This method works in Mail, Messages, WhatsApp, and any other app that allows Siri to add text. And if you don't know the name of the emoji, Siri and Dictation won't understand what you're talking about, and what you say will be typed without any conversion.
The easiest way to find emoji names on iPhone
You might have that face 😗 kissing or whistling, are those hands praying, thanking, asking, and is that brown thing 💩 chocolate ice cream or something else? The iPhone can help you determine the intentions designed for the emoji. One method will show you his name, and the other will say his name.
Use the Shortcuts app to find out the emoji's name
Apple has a pre-made shortcut in the Shortcuts app to see the emoji names, you can add it through this link:
◉ For the manual method, open the shortcuts and then enter the “Gallery” tab
◉ Find and select the shortcut “Name That Emoji”.
◉ You can click the add (+) button on the Name That Emoji card to add it to your library.
◉ You can also click on the card to see more details about the shortcut, and with Shortcut link Above you can find details about the shortcut. On this page, you can click (•••) on the card to review actions or “Add Shortcut” to add it to your library.
◉ Next, head over to the Shortcuts tab to test it out.
◉ Tap on the new Name That Emoji card to start the task.
◉ A box will open for you to enter one or more emojis.
◉ Once added, tap Done, and the shortcut will display the official names of these icons.
◉ Press “OK” to exit the shortcut.
◉ When you enter more than one emoji, the shortcut lists the names under each other, so you know which name the emoji belongs to and there is no confusion.
◉ It is not recommended to run the Name That Emoji shortcut from the Shortcuts app every time you want to know the name of the emoji.
Apple mentions in the shortcut card in the gallery that you can use the phrase “Hey Siri, Name That Emoji” to launch the shortcut, and Siri will ask you to say the name of the memoji you want to type, and we don’t want that, of course.
Alternatively, you can add the shortcut to your home screen for easy access.

Use the speech tools built into the iPhone to learn the name of the emoji
If you'd rather your iPhone tell you what emoji means by saying its name, there are some built-in speech tools you can use in different situations.
Enable the Speak Selection tool
Go to Settings -> Accessibility -> Spoken Content, then turn on Speak Selection. This will allow you to highlight the content on the screen, such as emojis in drafts, notes, articles, etc., and say their name.
Enable touch and hold for the predictions tool
Go to Settings -> Spoken Content, open "Typing Feedback", then enable "Hold to Speak Predictions". This will allow you to tap and hold an emoji or word in your keyboard suggestions and say its name.
Now write a message or comment anywhere on the iPhone and then add an emoji, double-click it to highlight it, or triple-click any character to select an entire line of emoji if you added more than one. From the pop-up menu, select Speak.
Once you press "Speak," the iPhone will speak the name of the emoji. While most emojis are named for what they look like, some of the names may surprise you.

Why don't you post a video clip? It is easier and more understandable, especially since you use incomprehensible Arabic cultural terms

Beautiful and useful article
There is also another way to pronounce the name of the emoji, which is through translation applications such as Google Translate, Yandex Translate, and others, and it pronounces it like Voice Over, for example, this is an emoji (😂) that pronounces tears of joy
Something strange the first time I heard it
The application of shortcuts is a treasure buried in the iPhone 😊 A few days ago I discovered a shortcut of the most wonderful thing, so that if you locked the auto-rotation of the iPhone through this shortcut, you can specify a specific application such as YouTube so that whoever plays a video in the YouTube application and flips the iPhone horizontally, you will see the video on all the iPhone screen 😍Very cool shortcuts app
Lovely
Very simple shortcut:
Shortcuts_automation_flag+_create personal automation_app or app_we choose the app from choose and tick in closed_then next and we press add action_then we search and choose set orientation _then next and we turn off the ask option_

For me, I use it in all video applications
Thanks for the well explained article
Yes, I did not read the entire article. I found that you are writing this thing that I meant. By God, some people write, and I am surprised why he writes like this.
Also, in emoji, I mean, I can’t write it here. I don’t know what its purpose is. The important thing is that it’s inappropriate and dirty.
It is not strange for iPhone Islam. Your explanation and information will always be valuable to you. From my thanks and appreciation. Please, and not two women, explain to us how to use taskburn. It is a beautiful and useful application. I would like to have a look at it.
Yes, it is true that we are blind. Some comments or messages come to me in which emoji have nothing to do with speech, and you know, Tareq Mansour. The VoiceOver description of the emoji is a face with tears of joy, a face crying loudly, a worried face, a face screaming in fear, endlessly.
God is a problem
Comfortable using voiceover ☺️
