EmojiAppCompatEditText

AppCompatEditText widget enhanced with emoji capability by using EmojiEditTextHelper.

A EditText which supports compatible features on older versions of the platform, including:

Allows dynamic tint of its background via the background tint methods in androidx.core.view.ViewCompat.
Allows setting of the background tint using R.attr#backgroundTint and R.attr#backgroundTintMode.

This will automatically be used when you use EditText in your layouts and the top-level activity / dialog is provided by appcompat. You should only need to manually use this class when writing custom views.
