In the updated version 2.12.170 of WhatsApp (Android)
If you opened the new emoji keyboard you’d see a sea of yellow faces. The standard smiley faces are the same but all the human emoji are now yellow. The yellow color is chosen specifically to be race-neutral, making it more standard than the previous white faces. However, if you want to go beyond the generic color, there is now the option to press and hold on these faces, which brings a popup of six skin colors ranging in skin tone from light to dark so you can be more specific. This doesn’t just apply to the faces but also to the hand signs and other emoji showing the dancer or the skier. Even Santa can be any color you want now.
When you choose a color, it becomes the default for that emoji so you don’t have to press and hold every time.
This feature is already available in Apple IPhone
