Add emojies for Android and iOS #24

Closed array-in-a-matrix closed 1 month ago

@array-in-a-matrix The apple emoji is already in use for macOS, so I think that might be confusing if something is available for both iOS and macOS. If we can resolve that, I'm fine with merging this. 😄

Maybe we could use the "phone" emoji for iOS? I'd also like to change the wording of iPhoneOS/iPadOS to just iOS if that is alright.

I'm not sure how I even missed this. It was late at night when I PR'd lol. I think either a phone emoji :iphone: or the other apple emoji :green_apple: work fine.

Sure, no problem.

What should we do regarding Apple's TVOS/WatchOS/Vision Pro?

DerekTurtleRoe commented 1 month ago

@array-in-a-matrix I think we should just use "iOS" for all of those since technically they are all iOS under the hood. Apple also internally refers to all of them as "iOS" in internal documents.

Also with how locked down and closed Apple devices are, it'll probably be a very long time, if ever, that emulators are released for things like the Apple Vision Pro, so we can always change our mind later if that somehow changes.

The Vision Pro has the GBA4vOS emulator which can do GB, GBC, and GBA. AFAIK this emulator supports all Apple hardware. Demo: https://www.threads.net/@rileytestut/post/C2-i4tEOlv8

Emulator developers are built different :muscle:.

That's pretty awesome, I think that is a web-based emulator, so it might be unable to be used if Apple decides to go through with the removal of PWAs, but we'll have to see.
