So, I accidentally turned a rather inappropriate picture of myself into a custom emoji on my iPhone. I was trying to edit the photo by cutting it out and changing the background when I hit something that made it get saved as an emoji. Now, every time I open my emoji keyboard, that picture shows up, and I'm really worried I'll use it by accident. Can someone help me figure out how to delete this?

If it's a sticker you created, you can delete it while in Messages. Just add a sticker, long-press on it, and there should be a delete option. Easy peasy!
Press and hold the emoji until it gets slightly bigger, then let go when it shrinks back down. You should see a delete option appear!
Make sure you're looking in the sticker section of your emojis! Long-press on your custom sticker and you should see a delete option. It's really simple!
In your Notes, bring up the keyboard and tap the smiley face icon. Hold down your sticker until a delete option pops up. It sometimes takes a few tries, but it works!
You probably mean a sticker instead of an emoji. Try looking up solutions for deleting stickers; that might help!
You were spot on—it's actually a sticker! Thanks!
You can easily delete it! Just do a quick Google search on how to remove custom emojis. There’s an Apple support page that explains it well.
I'm betting OP can't focus on googling when a certain something is staring back at them!
Let's keep our jobs, shhh! But honestly, a little research would save a lot of trouble.
Thanks, that worked! I had to hold it down a bunch of times, but finally got the delete option to show up.
