Frequently asked questions
- What changed in Facebook 2.2.1?
- Compared with 2.2, Facebook 2.2.1 added no new emoji and redrew 7 existing designs.
- How is a redesign told apart from a re-release?
- By the artwork itself. Every image is stored with a checksum of its bytes, so a design counts as redrawn only when those bytes differ from 2.2. A version number cannot tell you this — most releases ship the same drawings unchanged.
