I applied for the playground app in the morning, but it hasn’t been working for 14 hours…

You’re not alone; many people still haven’t gotten in.

I think it’s completely random and unlike the Apple Intelligence waiting list, where people get in much faster.

Thank you, I’ll have to wait a little longer.

I cannot use Genmoji but I can use the Playground app. Are they different waitlists?

I think they’re part of the same waiting list; I got both features once I was in. Do you get any notifications when using Genmoji?

The thing is that the feature is not there at all. I do not have an option to Create an Emoji

You’ll have to wait a bit longer; many people got in but then had to go back on the waitlist 🤦‍♂️

So I usually do not have Emoji Stickers on and apparently, it has to be on to create new emojis. I did not know that… had the feature turned off the whole time.

Ah, got it. I didn’t realize that Emoji Stickers had to be enabled to use Gemoji.

Thank you for pointing that out 🙏
