#WWDC26 hashmoji now live on X ahead of next week’s keynote

As it has done over the past several years, Apple has kicked off its hashmoji campaign on X for posts containing the #WWDC26 hashtag.

As spotted by Aaron Perris, X users posting about next week’s event can now use the #WWDC26 hashtag to automatically add a hashmoji to their posts.

Like in previous years, the artwork applies this year’s WWDC look to Apple’s logo. For 2026, that means a metallic, reflective design with the same chromatic aberration effect that is widely expected to be part of Siri’s new look in iOS 27.

The WWDC26 hashmoji went live a few hours after Apple’s SVP of Worldwide Marketing, Greg “Joz” Joswiak, published a teaser of the event on his own account on X:

In addition to Joz’s post, Apple published a “Get ready for WWDC26” video on YouTube and an Apple Music playlist for the event. You can read more about that here.

WWDC 2026 kicks off on Monday, June 8, with Apple set to announce the next versions of all its operating systems, as well as what the company has already described as “AI advancements” coming to its platforms.

Among other AI-related features across its ecosystem, Apple is widely expected to announce the first results of its partnership with Google, with Gemini powering the new Siri.
