Kim Kardashian West drops new Kimojis

Los Angeles - Kim Kardashian West has launched a new range of Kimojis.

The Keeping Up with the Kardashians star has added messaging graphic symbols of her husband Kanye West, their two-year-old daughter North and her younger half-sister Kylie Jenner to the line.

In a series of Instagram posts featuring the new designs, Kim - who also has son Saint, five months, with Kanye - wrote: "New Kimoji's coming soon !!!!! ... So many new good Kimoji's launching tomorrow! ... #NewKimojiAlert ... MOOD #Kimoji (sic)"

The 35-year-old beauty's mother Kris Jenner has also shared the exciting news.

Taking to her Instagram account to share one of Kim's new designs, she wrote: "O.M.G. New Kimoji's launching soon... best ever @kimkardashian !!! #kimoji #mynewscreensaver (sic)"

The new additions, which include Kanye's smile and grumpy face, Kylie's "ugly crying" face and North's cheeky side eye, are available from Wednesday through the Apple Store and on Android mobile phones.

The updated Kimojis come not long after Amber Rose, the ex-girlfriend of Kanye, reportedly made $2m on the opening day of her own line of emojis.

The 32-year-old star debuted her MuvaMojis, a set of 900 symbols available from Apple and Android app stores in March and the model is said to be set to receive a cut of the profits after the successful start.

Sources close to the fashion designer said Amber has already made $4m out of the app after signing a deal with developer Appmoji.

Meanwhile, Kim's are said to make her $1m a minute.

According to reports, the $1.99 app was getting downloaded at a rate of 9000 times per millisecond on its first day.
