Change emoji per conversation
Just an option to change the type of emoji per conversation thread. Like having iOS emojis for friends texting from iPhones, and Android emojis for friends on Android

Using the emoji add-on for Textra, it would be great to switch to the same emoji set that the recipient uses so there isn't any miscommunication.

It would be great to see what iPhone users really sent and reciprocally what they will see on their iPhone ! :D

I have a Samsung phone and use Textra to translate emojis to/from friends using iOS.
If I want to a text to a Samsung user, I need to go to the settings for the Textra app and switch to the Samsung emoji set.
I agree with Anonymous that Textra should allow the user to specify the emoji set per conversation. This would eliminate the need to constantly change the emoji set from the Textra settings menu.
Yes, the emojis "automatically transfer" to iOS emojis when it gets to an iPhone... but the emojis that I send from a Samsung don't translate well.
This article from Verge illustrates our point: http://www.theverge.com/2016/4/11/11406944/emoji-meaning-difference-ios-android

the emojis automatically transfer to ios emojis when sending to iPhone etc so this already exists.
