Runner-Focused Emoji Apps

The Runmoji App Helps Avid Runners Express Themselves Better

— October 21, 2016 — Tech
Runmoji is an emoji app whose mandate is simple but set to appeal to anyone who likes running. This is an app that is designed to help people whose lives revolve around running to express themselves "as only a runner can."

Developed by Fleet Feet Sports and made available as a free download over at the Apple App Store, this emoji app offers an array of nearly 30 different emojis that depict a whole range of actions, thoughts and emotions that are highly relevant and pertinent to the hobby and sport of running. Some of the emojis depict people running with their dogs, gold medals and even bruised toes.

Given the importance that emojis have taken on among people looking to express themselves through mobile communication, Runmoji is certainly a fine example of a sport-focused emoji app.
Trend Themes
1. Sports-focused Emoji Apps - There is an opportunity to create more sports-specific emoji apps in order to cater to different hobbies and interests beyond just running.
2. Personalized Emoji Apps - Developing more personalized emoji apps with a wide range of customized options could attract more users to engage in mobile communication.
3. Branded Emoji Apps - Companies could create branded emoji apps to help promote their products or services and engage with their audience in a more personalized and interactive way.
Industry Implications
1. Sports Retail - Sports retail companies can invest in creating personalized emoji apps to stay connected and engaged with their customers, who are often very passionate about their hobbies and interests.
2. Marketing and Advertising - Branded emoji apps can be a fun and interactive way to promote products and services, providing a more personalized and engaging experience for the target audience.
3. Mobile Communication - Developers could create more and varied emoji apps given the high demand for mobile expressions and personalized ways of communication.
