Engraving is not a new thing and Apple has long offered such the option for selected products. The engraving option has been available for AirPods as well, but it was limited to text only. Now the company is expanding the engraving option for AirPods to include emojis as well. Yes, you heard that right, you engrave an emoji onto your AirPods case.

“New personal engraving options, from A to emoji” states Apple in a new banner featured on the home page of its website. You can now customize AirPods in the Apple Online Store through the “Personalize it for free” option that appears when you select the earphones. The current options are fairly limited, but all the most popular emojis are mostly there.

Users can also add text to personalize their devices, with Apple introducing a new uppercase typeface that offers more pop than the original typeface, which was lower case and smaller on the AirPods. Right now, it’s not possible to mix emoji and text – you must choose one or the other, though, for text-based options, you can add numbers and dates.

Once you add a pair of AirPods or AirPods Pro to your basket, you can click on the ‘Add Engraving’ option and run through the short engraving process. The offer right now is available in United States, Canada, United Kingdom, Australia, Japan, and a few other countries where iPhone maker can exercise direct online sale.
